Here are a few example comments
from our class discussion:

We are a classroom that adds
on to others' thinking because...
We are a classroom that is
inclusive because...
We are a classroom that listens and respects what our classmates say, because if we didn't we wouldn't learn much. Also we wouldn't know what to do very often because we were not listening. Also it makes the people speaking feel bad because it makes them feel like they're not saying the right thing. That is why we should listen to and respect what other people are saying.
ReplyDeleteI agree because we do respect our classmates
DeleteOur class is kind and loving to each other because if we weren't then we wouldn't be a beloved community. Today talked about how we shouldn't point fingers and laugh at people and that we should have manners and help each other. We shouldn't laugh at some one when they some wrong because you are just as wrong as them, and you might hurt there feelings. We are a class that add on to people because you might have something els to say and that is good because that means you were listening to that person. We include people because then people think that there not in a safe place.
ReplyDeleteWe are a class that respect each other and are kind to each other because if we're not someone will get hurt emotionally and physically. For example, if we invade each others personal space, people are going to be touching each other and that will lead to people getting hurt. IF we go insulting people, based on their gender, height, age, or the way they look, or their shoes, or how much money they have, then you will be insulting them and they'll feel bad about who they are. This is why we should respect each other's feelings and opinions.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the part where U said we shouldn't
Deleteinsult people because of their gender or
race.
I agree with that because it's not loving nor kind to make fun of people and it makes both people feel bad.
DeleteI agree about when you said things about the shoe thing because that happened to me just the other day!
DeleteI agree with you when you said we shouldn't insult anyone no matter what.
DeleteI think that one important thing in our classroom culture is that kids should be nice to each other. There should be no agism or treating others badly for any other reasons.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that respects each other’s opinions because we are all equal. We are helping each other to make our classroom environment kinder and more inclusive. We let people speak to each other when it’s their turn, and even if you disagree don’t say it disrespectfully. And we don’t ever yell at anyone.
We are a classroom that adds on to others’ thinking by your sharing ideas that you get from what others’ have said.
We are a classroom that is inclusive because we treat each person in our class the same, not differently. Everyone is very different from the other - we talk to each other even if we feel differently about something.
Our class is kind because we let anyone in our groups - we don’t exclude people from our games.
I like how you said that it's very clear and straight forward
DeleteWe are a classroom that does not bully one another because it hurts the other person’s feelings and is offensive. We discussed this in class after somebody bullied me. Everybody in class agreed that bullying is a bad thing to do to one another. Both bullying with our words and bullying with our hands and feet are not OK. For example do not shove other people and do not say things like shut up. If someone bullies you ignore them, but if the bullying gets aggressive you should tell a teacher or counsler.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that is good at doing the stuff we are supposed to do, like not talking during silent read, also when we are writing we only talk to understand what we are doing for the next step. We believe in not bullying each other, not being mean to other people.
ReplyDeleteI think that being nice to people is good and helping them if they understand.
Also we are a classroom that needs to work on getting a lot better at lunch because we usually don't clean up our trash. So we need to clean up after ourselves.
We are a classroom that listens to one another because it does not make you feel good if you are the one who is talking and someone else is talking. When someone is talking, they might have something really important to say and it's respectful to the person talking to listen to him or her. When someone is talking, you can learn something about that person and maybe even learn something new. If you listen to somebody when they are speaking, you can learn things you never thought you'd learn like you can go under the Niagara Falls if you visit and it might make someone else want to go there.
ReplyDeleteI agree because when nobody's listening to you it feels bad.
DeleteWe are a classroom who is responsible for our actions and doesn't disrespect our teachers who help us ,do things for us to get better and better at math,writing and a lot more stuff.We don't speak when others are talking and we listen to each other's comments.We don't bully in our class we are not sexist or racist.���� I fell sick when I here someone say oh your a girl you can't play soccer oh your black so blacks don't matter I get really really sick.
ReplyDelete1. We are a class that is good at being nice to each other people because I notice that during recess one of our class got sad and I saw one of our class mate helping the kid.
ReplyDelete2. We are a class that can be quite because I see a lot of people trying to not talk during quite reading or quite writing time .
The Thing That We Need To Work On!
1.The thing that we need to work on is we need to start listening to Nilda in lunch when she saids to line up.
2.the thing that we need to work on is to line up correctly when we are going to the lunch room and in the lunch room.
3.We need to work not to touch the Bingo ball because a lot of people are still touching it when ms.s saids not to touch it.
We are a classroom that includes people because if we didn't no one would get along and we wouldn't be friends. One we way we do this it letting people sit next to you and not talking about other people and letting them join your conversation.
ReplyDeleteWe are also a classroom that treats people nicely at all times. We try not to get angry and to stay positive. We do this to make them feel welcome in our community.
We are a class that is very friendly and kind because nobody use bad words and nobody is doing bad things like bulling.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that respects each others opinions because its not fair for some one to ignore you and everyone has the right to share their opinion like if were in reader response and we are talking about a character or something in the book we do not get mad or yell or ignore somebody. We are a classroom that adds on to others thinking because students could add more details or you could learn something new. Students can add their ideas and agree with their classmates. We are a classroom that is inclusive because no one will ever be left out of anything. You will all ways be apart of the class.We are a class room that is caring because if anybody makes a mistake someone will help you so you will not fail or if you don't understand we will always tell you what that thing means.
ReplyDeleteWe are a class that is inclusive and we love eachother and we are beautiful and we should treat them the way you want to be treated and respect one another and I love the knew loving teacher.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that respect each other
ReplyDeletebecause in this classroom we are all different in many ways. We think, look, and act different. We also are a family,so we look out for eachother. If someone is new to this school and there's someone bullying them then that means as a family that respects one another, we should stand up for them if they cannot help themselves.Another reason that we're a family of respect is because we respect how eachother. If you don't agree with someones' opinion that's fine as long as you respect how they feel.
Our own class culture is that we have the right to follow our class rules and no one is using curse words or doing worst things such as bulling or insulting. We are responsible to do what Ms.Scarborough tells us what to do. Our last own culture is that we share our own beliefs.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that is inclusive because when someone's doing something like say when we are doing turn-and-talk,no one is on their own because even when someone is being left out, we try to get them in our group.
ReplyDeleteI want a classroom culture where everyone is friends with each other. Maybe some people don't play together, but they respect everyone. Maybe we're not physical friends, but we don't take any hates.
I want a classroom with more teaching less testing! Because you get more knowledge with teaching, it's too much stress when you test.
Our class does not have bullies.Even some of the bad people I knew last year have turned around and gotten better.
we are a classroom that respects each others opinion because if you said that is wrong you would be acting meen and rude and everybody would not respect your ideas and i bet you would not like that.
ReplyDeletei think you shoud not juge people by there gender or skin coulor or there age because everybody is equal no madder the surcomstances and if somebody was racist or sexist or agest to you you would not feel very good.
I think you should respect the teacher because she is the one teaching you and helping you grow and that should not be how you re pay her.
i think its good to help people when they need help and be kind and sharing and genurs because then everybody like you and want to be friends with you and you will be a better person over all.
I agree with you on all of these ideas and I think respecting the teacher is very important because she is the one who is helping you grow as a learner.
DeleteI think that people should not yell at each other even if it’s in a friendly way because people might mistake it for a mean way and feel badly. I think people should speak calmly and express themselves with an indoor voice.
ReplyDeleteI also think that we should not whisper to each other because when people see that, they may think that you are whispering about them and it might make them feel sad.
I am against bullying because people A. can get physically injured and B. they can really get their feelings hurt and feel badly. Bullying makes people kind of scared of school, and might not want to come back to school. At school, we want people to feel safe and happy because school is supposed to be fun, it’s not supposed to be scary.
No naughty language like curse words should be said in school. I’ve heard people say curse words and I think it’s inappropriate. These words are rude and offensive. Along with bullying, I think they kind of make people feel unsafe.
I’ve heard people talk and make fun of really tall kids and really short kids. I don’t think that they should be doing that because if the person who is tall or the person who is small found out, they would be depressed and feel uncomfortable. Some people grow slower than others and some people grow faster. I think we should just celebrate how different everybody looks and not make fun of them for their different looks.
I’ve also seen laughing and pointing and I think it’s ill-mannered and makes people feel badly. We should all treat each other with kindness and love. We should all be respectful towards each other.
We are a classroom that is kind because when I had to go to speech therapy no one made fun of me. When people were done with their math, they went to help others who needed help. When one of the students did not know where their linespot was, another student told them where it was.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that we care for each other because If someone starts to cry at recess or anywhere we try to solve it. We ask the person why are you crying, who did it or, why do you think they did that? We also like to help each other in math when someone is confused. People want to help and there is about 5 hands up to help that person with math or with anything they need help with. We are a classroom that is a nice and helpful environment because we all want the best for each other. We are like a little family.
ReplyDeleteWe are a classroom that respects each other's opinions because we listen to each other when we speak.We do not judge people based off each others opinions.we respect each other's opinions and stay respectful and positive towards each other. Another. reason is because everyone is entitled to their own opinions and we must respect that even if we disagree. In class we all agree to disagree that is how class 317 respects each other's opinions!I remember when Ms.S asked who liked popcorn or cotton candy and some people raised their hands for popcorn and some raised their hands for cotton candy, We each gave an opinion on why we liked or disliked cotton candy or popcorn.
ReplyDeleteI feel the author message is to speak up for yourself because Naomi doesn't speak up for herself. I know this because in chapter 1 Naomi said that she writes all her worries down. Naomi is the kind of person who is shy beacause when there was a bully she doesn't even say anything to the bully. I also think Naomi is trying to fit in because she has no friends this is why she stay with Mr.Marble and other kids with no friends. Naomi is happy because now she isn't as shy and doesn't feel left out. I feel the author wants us to know how important it is to speak up for yourself and have a voice.
