Chapters 22-32

After reading chapters 22-32, the rules that stuck out to me the most was rule 22 and rule 24. Rule 22 talks about the reason Mr. Clark let his students have food in his classroom. I think that in every classroom the students be able to have at least a bottle of water in our classroom. Like Mr. Clark said having a bottle of water in your classroom can help prevent your students go and get water while you are giving a lesson. " I decided that I would just allow them to keep a bottle of water on their desk, and that way, I would not have kids getting up and down to get water all through my lesson". There should be a limit on having food and water in the classroom because most students do have a mess in their desk. Like Mr. Clarks story about his student Tamanda, she had all different kind of mess in her desk. "It was a hassle keeping that girl from making a mess, and finally I had to take her food privileges away". This rule shows that having food and water in the classroom is a good I idea but it should also have limits. 
The second rule that stuck out to me was rule number 24. Rule number 24 talks about how the students have to keep the restrooms and their selfs clean. I really like this rule because it is important for students to be clean and keep the restrooms clean. " you learn that if you want to survive you have to stop the germs where they start". Mr.clark mentions that when he first started teaching he noticed that the urinals in the boys restroom were never being flushed.  And how his boy students answered that they didn't want to touch the handle because it's nasty. "I don't want to touch the handle because it's nasty". It's is very important to have the restrooms clean because as a person no one wants to go in a dirty bathroom. " I reinforce the need to take care of your own business and not to leave it there for others to deal with. Rule number 24 I feel it is important because the students need to be clean. Especially if you are a teacher for an elementary classroom. https://www.slideshare.net/mobile/chikipong/the-essential-55-rules
