Music Class Expectations

Classroom Expectations

By Mrs. King

Upon this wall are rules I post

That you must follow here the most

Please enter the room with a quiet smile

And be prepared to learn music for a while

Stay in your seat, whether floor or chair

Make sure your supplies are with you there

Do your best to sing, dance and learn

Then high scores you will always earn

During discussions avoid disruptions

With needless talk or rude interruptions

Please raise your hand before you talk out

So all may hear what your thoughts are about

In the music room there are lots of neat things

But before you touch let the warning bells ring

Take care of supplies, instruments and books

Treat them respectfully.  Don’t be a crook!

Put things back where they were found

So Mrs. King won’t have to frown

Keep your papers nice and crisp

Don’t fold or crinkle or wad or twist

Here is something for you to consider

Where is the place we deposit litter?

It’s not the hallway or music room floor or carpet

But in the waste basket is where we drop it

There should be absolutely no gum in this class.

No candy, no food, no drinks.  Don’t ask.

If in your shoe rocks or dirt is seen

Dump them in the trash.  Let’s keep our room clean.

Never hurl insults or words of hate or fear

“Please” and “Thank You” are better to hear

Do not use language in a negative way

Try “Good job!”, “Keep trying!”  or “Have a great day!”

If you think this poem is too long to remember

Here are 3 rules that can make you a winner

Respect the property of each and everyone

Respect others.  Respect yourself.  That’s three.  You’re done.

By treating each other with consideration

You will enjoy a first rate education

But if these rules you do neglect

This poem written out I will collect.
