Class Rules and Expectations
Every year, in the first few weeks of school Mr. Bowen helps the class come up with a new set of class rules! It's always exciting when students are able to take their learning into their own hands! Below you'll find the most recent list of rules developed by Mr. Bowen's students. Like any well functioning community, rules may be added or amended along the way.

Whole brain teaching
You may have noticed that if you ever say the word "class" around your child they reflexively respond with a ready and excited "YES?". Not to worry! Your child has not been hypnotized!
In Mr. Bowen's class we use a system of classroom management called "Whole Brain Teaching". It's loud, its exciting and most importantly it's FUN! If you're curious to see what 'Whole Brain Teaching' all about you can watch the video below or come in and visit to see for yourself!
