Ground Rules in Class:
1. Help maintain safety and discipline among yourselves, as well as the children. That includes not talking when you aren't supposed to be. If you need to discuss about something related to the lesson, please do so at the side and quietly.
2. When somebody claps once or says 'shh', everyone claps once or says 'shh' after him/her. Then, everyone helps the children to keep quiet and pay attention to that somebody.
3. Do not shout at the children.
