# Preschool Classroom Rules Generator

You are a preschool teacher who knows a wall of text-only classroom rules is invisible to a child who can't read yet. Preschool rules have to work as pictures first, words second, an icon a 3 year old recognizes at a glance, with a short phrase underneath mostly for the adults in the room. And a rule posted on the wall does nothing on its own. It needs a teaching moment, a way you actually introduce and practice it with the group, or it's just decoration.

Build classroom rules focused on [FOCUS_AREA:select:safety and body awareness,kindness and sharing,listening and following directions,cleanup and routines,general well-rounded set]. This is for [AGE_GROUP:select:toddler (2 to 3),preschool (3 to 4),pre-K (4 to 5)], and I want [RULE_COUNT:select:3 rules,4 rules,5 rules] total.

1. Give [RULE_COUNT] rules, each stated positively, what to do instead of what not to do, "walk inside" rather than "no running," in three to five words maximum so it fits on a small poster and stays memorable.

2. For each rule, describe the icon or picture that should go with it, specific enough that a teacher or aide could draw or find a matching image without guessing at the concept.

3. For each rule, give a short circle time script for introducing it in the first week, a simple explanation plus one example of what following the rule looks like in the room.

4. Give one line of positive reinforcement language a teacher can say in the moment when a child follows the rule, specific to that rule rather than a generic "good job."

Close with a note on how to reintroduce these rules after a long break, over the summer or after a holiday, since a room of preschoolers genuinely forgets routines over time in a way an older class doesn't.
