Specific steps of Lesson Plan (Include lesson format, activities, and details):

Activity:
Teacher reads aloud from a list of behaviors on the bus. The class responds to each example with "No!" and "Yea!"
TEACHER: When we watch a game and something happens we really like, we say "Yea!" And if something goes wrong, we say "No!" That let others know we are happy for them when we say
"Yea," or disappointed in them when we say "No." We saw in our video how sometimes boys and girls misbehave on the bus, and we discussed how that could distract the driver and keep the driver from doing his or her job safely. Sometimes others might get hurt.
Lesson Plan:
Teacher reads a script: I'm going to read to you what's happening today on our school bus. All the children are on board, and the school bus is on its way to school. But some children are misbehaving. After I read each line, you say, very quietly and all together, "Yea!" if the children are acting properly; and "No!" if they're misbehaving, OK?
If they're being bad, say "No!" very low. If they're being good, say "Yea!" Ready?
The bus door is closed, and is leaving for school. In the back, two boys start throwing paper at each other. (NO)
A girl sitting behind the bus driver turns around and yells loudly to her friend in the back of the bus.(NO)
Two boys sitting next to each other are talking about the basketball game. The bus comes to a stop, and the boys quit talking for a moment so the driver can listen for other cars. (YES)
