Hi i'm Ben, and this is our ritual and routine called Evaluate. Evaluate is one of the most important parts of our day, we do it almost everyday unless we have a super speedy REARJMCL. Without evaluate we would not be able to go over what happened that day and set goals. Evaluate is a very important Ritual because we do it all the time and it is when we set goals for the day. Evaluate happens at the end of the day right after REARJMCL, so we can be a bit rilled up because school will end soon. Evaluate can be a tough time but the Evaluator can always get the class back on topic. During Evaluate we will come up with a goal for the next day and someone will write it on the easel and someone will write it on the small dry - erase board that we then put out in the hall. After we do that we go onto the checklist which is how we then reflect on our day by giving ourselves a positive or a negative in a certain subject like "How many chairs were not stacked." or "How did we do in the halls today, positive or negative.". Then the class will say all at the same time what they think it should be. The evaluator then decides that and says either "Positive 1 or 2." or "Negative 1 or 2.". Then we will get points totaled up towards are next fun activity, like once we did the Cardboard Challenge which was a lot of fun.
So if we didn't have evaluate at the end of the day, we would never be able to set goals, or reflect on the day. If we never covered the good and the bad of the day we would never be able to improve the bad or think of how nice or good we were at a certain time. Without evaluate at the end of the day, we would have no time to set a goal. So what i'm trying to say is, if we didn't have evaluate, we would never be able to reflect on the bad and good during that day and never able to do our annual checklist and i'm guessing that if we didn't have evaluate we probably wouldn't have recap or announcements so then the whole classroom would fall apart and we wouldn't remember any goals. So that is our Ritual and routine, evaluate, and I hope you enjoy it too!
Some tips I might have for evaluate is to be always listening and participating because we are talking about what happened that day, especially during the checklist because if we had a really good day, you might want to let the checklist know that.
