ASB/Student Council/Leadership Class Contract - Editable
A classic way to set expectations at the beginning of a class -- even a class as unique as Student Council. This Contract is clear and articulates the expectations for a ASB class.

The contract outlines the class information, student expectations, discipline policy, and assessment and grading.I typically will go over the Cont

Some of the steps are from "Prevention and Intervention of Writing Difficulties for Students with Learning Disabilities," a research article by Steve Graham, Karen R. Harris, and Lynn Larsen. Some of the steps are originals, which I felt were important enough to include. Students are motivated throughout the process because the interve

As the thoughts start flowing, have your child write down simple words (nouns and verbs) that will help when it comes time to do the actual writing.
