Hand Signals

• There are three signals we need to know when we are having discussions, whether they are in small groups or as a whole class.• When someone is speaking, we do not interrupt them. But when we

agree with their words, disagree with their words, or have words of our own to add on to their ideas, we can communicate that respectfully and without interrupting with three signals:

Agree

Disagree

Build upon the comment

Signal for bathroom

Only one person at a timeNobody uses restroom during first 10minutes or last 10 minutes of class.Not permitted when teacher is giving explicit classdirections.I will acknowledge with a nod

Signal for Tissue

Hand raised while pinching nose.I will acknowledge you and nod my headTo the direction of the tissue box

Signal for new pencil

I am going to see your pencil in the air, and am going to point to where the sharpened pencils are or nod my head giving you permission to quietly get out of your seat and trade your broken pencil for a sharpened one. The broken pencil is quietly placed into the “Dull ” container.
