This is an explanation letter to parents and students of my classroom discipline plan. I have left it as a Word document so that you can edit and change things around some to suit your needs. This is an excellent resource for a new (or even a veteran) teacher to articulate your classroom expectations and consequences. Please, if you like it, leave feedback and check out my other items!
