WELCOME TO MRS.

BUSH’S 6TH GRADE CLASS!

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT MRS. BUSH

I grew up in a rural town in Iowa and lived there until I moved to Utah 5 years ago with Mr. Bush!

My family consists of Mr. Bush, our son Cole and our dog, Izzy!

I thoroughly enjoy camping, running, kayaking, being outside, reading and most of all dancing!

In the classroom I enjoy joking around and making learning fun!

I love teaching Math!

BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT I believe students get to choose their choices! Those

choices have consequences! You get to decide if that consequence is positive or negative!

Please feel free to look at Syracuse Elementary Policies! (Click Here)

Positive ConsequencesWhen you’re caught choosing good

choices you will get verbal praise and/or receive tickets.

A few tickets are drawn weekly for prizes. Tickets may also be traded for other prizes. (ex: sit by a friend, get out of homework ticket, etc.)

BEHAVIOR MANAGEMENT (CONTINUED)

Negative Consequences (There will be a phone call to parents, a note sent home or an email sent to parents as needed.)1st offence will result in a verbal warning2nd occurrence will result in a discussion

with Mrs. Bush3 or more occurrences will result in being

removed from the classroom (missed work will not be able to be made up).

ATTENDANCEAttendance is VERY important! I understand illnesses happen, but

please help your student to be at school as often as possible!

If a student is absent for any reason, the student is responsible for getting make up work.

The first bell rings at 8:40, the late bell rings at 8:50 and dismissal is at 3:25
