Classroom Gotchas

  • Students can earn Gotchas when they exemplify what it means to be a Fern Drive Falcon and follow the 4 school rules - Be Respectful, Be Responsible, Be Safe, and Be Kind. Other ways to earn Gotchas are doing well on tests and completing skills on IXL. In class, we will keep track of how many Gotchas students earn on a magnetic chart.

    • Outstanding - 3 Gotchas
    • Great Job - 2 Gotchas
    • Good Day - 1 Gotcha
    • Ready to Start 

    GOTCHA BOX!!! Students can redeem Gotchas for prizes on Gotcha Day. Once a month, I will bring in the prize box. Students with 20 Gotchas can redeem their Gotchas for "Lunch with Mrs. Campos" instead of a prize from the Treasure Box.

    Students who are disruptive will be redirected with verbal cues. Any extreme behaviors will receive an FYI to notify parents.

  • Class Gotchas

    As a class, students can earn class Gotchas. These will be kept at school. Class Gotchas is a way to promote community effort.  

    Examples of ways to earn class Gotchas:

    • Daily perfect attendance.
    • No tardies.
    • Every student is on task.
    • All students are green or better.
    • Walking quietly and orderly from class to class.

    Once the class earns 20 class Gotchase, the class will vote on a prize.  Prizes can be Pajama Day, Share a Book Day, Movies and Popcorn, etc...
