Expectations for Students & Parents. Include the estimated number of hours of outside work, specific books to be read, description of big projects required, field trips, participation, etc. Please keep in mind the TJEd model and your target phase. For Core classes, there would be no outside work; Love of Learning, only minimal outside work; Scholar classes are variable depending on which level it is directed toward. Love of Learning, Transition to Scholar, and Practice Scholar classes all should have a level of opt in/out included in inspirements/outside work. How will the students, parents, and mentor know that the expectations are met? (i.e. memorization, final project, papers, other projects). Will there be a reward ceremony, certificate given, etc.? Do you have a behavior policy for students who may be causing disruptions to the class? In general, we expect students to come to class on time, stay the whole time, and show respect to you and their classmates. Every class at iFamily should have a high standard of respect and be teaching leadership on some level. Because this is your class, you are free to have more specific classroom expectations or rules in place. Have you thought through consequences/loss of privileges for students who are not meeting your behavioral expectations? For example, if a student is continually being disruptive, will they be asked to leave? Are parents expected to make any contributions? What follow up do you expect from parents about homework? Are parents expected to send anything with their children? Clear communication between parents and mentors helps everyone to better understand expectations/requirements and lessens frustration. Please outline this here so parents/students can clearly understand your expectations for the class.
