Rules and Procedures

Teachers need to distinguish between rules and procedures. There should be less than 5 rules in a classroom which govern behavior (e.g. respect others). There can be many procedures (e.g. passing papers, using computers, turning in homework) which should be taught as the need arises. All rules and procedures should be reviewed throughout the year. Don't we all forget sometimes? The review is as much for me as for the students.
