Assignment - Infographics - 103

Objective

Create a tips infographic in Canva for primary school teachers on how to create classroom rules that students actually follow.

Instructions

Content to Cover

Include the following tips, each with a short explanation and an icon:

1. Involve students - Rules made together are followed more willingly. Ask students: “What do we need to learn well together?”
2. Keep rules positive - Write what students should do, not what they should not. “Listen when others speak” works better than “Don’t talk out of turn.”
3. Limit to five or six rules - Too many rules are hard to remember. Focus on the most important behaviors.
4. Use simple language - Rules should be readable by the youngest students in the class.
5. Display rules visually - Post them at eye level with an icon next to each rule so non-readers can follow along.
6. Review rules regularly - Revisit them at the start of each term, or when a rule is being broken repeatedly.
7. Tie rules to values - Each rule should connect to a reason: “We listen because everyone deserves to be heard.”

Sample Rules to Include

• We listen when someone is speaking.
• We keep our hands and feet to ourselves.
• We take care of our classroom and materials.
• We try our best even when something is difficult.
• We treat everyone with respect.
