Teachers are to go over the tardy policy with each class to insure that all students understand the tardy policy and the procedures to be followed. All unexcused tardies will be recorded. Discipline reports will be written according to the Tardy Policy. LESSON PLAN BOOKS Teachers are required to have Lesson Plans daily for administration to view. Lesson Plans must be kept up-to-date. Four components are required by Board Policy IKC--Teacher Planning. They are: Unit standards Materials to be used Teacher and student activities planned (Include at least two engaging activities daily) Evaluation procedures (grading rubric) Lesson plans may need to include extra information and instructions for a substitute teacher. SUGGESTED STRATEGIES FOR MAINTAINING TIME ON TASK Beginning Class: Prepare materials and equipment class before begins. Checking roll should not be a time consuming process. Establish orderly procedures for sharpening pencils and obtaining books and materials. Require all students to be seated at their desks when the tardy bell rings. Instructional Activities: Establish a consistent procedure to follow when student work is complete. Maintain student on-task behavior. Keep all instructional activities within the subject area. In general, spend more time on interactive on-task instruction (discussion, oral instruction, reading aloud, drill and practice, and supportive feedback) and less on on-task instruction (teacher paperwork, silent reading, written assignments). This may be revised to fit
