Classroom Rules - Be Safe

One of my favorite books to read when introducing classroom rules is Office Buckle and Gloria.

Be Safe is one of our three rules. It is a generic rule that encompasses a lot of different rules related to safety.  After reading the book, my students would get the chance to act out how to be safe and how to NOT be safe.  They always got a kick out of this and the chance to do what they are not supposed to do.


Then each child would get the chance to write a safety tip.  We would share these as a class and create an anchor chart.  I would add any important classroom safety rules if they weren't already added by the students.


My second graders loved reading this book and creating their own safety tips that pertain to our classroom and playground.
