marker back to your table group

3. Write down ideas of what your group thinks each expectation looks like in the classroom. What are you as students doing to

show respectresponsibilityengagement? For example: our group feels that listening and not talking during instruction is an example of respect. 

Time Keeper: give your group 5 minutes per Expectation.
