When I was teaching at FRCS as a LTS art teacher for middle school students, I was encouraged to display my Class Rules prominently. It went through several iterations. Mostly the list got shorter, the words got bigger and color was added. Here is a small task for you. Take this early list that basically is what you want and make it your own. Make it easily digestible while your at it.

Mr Lamb's Class Rules

-->
  1. Always be on time for class and prepared with the necessary materials.
  2. You need a pass to be admitted into class late. 
  3. Homework and assignments are written on the board for each class, it is  your responsibility to be aware of those and write them down. This information is also available in your syllabus.
  4. If you have a question, raise your hand.
  5. All students are working on classwork at all times. Disturbing or distracting behavior will not be tolerated. Be on your best behavior at all times. Ask permission before working on anything else! 
  6. If you don’t know or don’t understand something – ask me for help.
  7. Pick up after yourself at the end of every class – this includes any materials you may have used during class, anything you brought to class and any trash or spills. Please make sure if you take art supplies out that it is returned to that same place.
  8. No electronics. I WILL take it away.
  9. One student at a time may leave the room to go to the bathroom, locker, etc.
  10. Put your name and your class section on all of your work.
  11. Do not leave a mess. You are responsible for cleaning tools and brushes, leave enough time.
  12. Be very creative!
