About these classroom passes handouts

A good pass does two jobs. It tells the adult in the hallway that a student is where they are supposed to be, and it gives you a quick written record of who left, when and why. These cards are sized six to a page, so one sheet of paper covers a week for most rooms, and each card has a clear place for the student, the time out and the time back.

The hall and bathroom pass has tick boxes for the usual destinations, so a student can mark where they are going without a conversation. The library, nurse and office and guidance passes work the same way with boxes that fit each trip. The nurse pass asks for a reason in the student's own words and does not ask for any medical detail.

The no-homework pass is a classroom reward. A student can hand it in for one assignment of their choice, and you initial it when it is used. Because every one of these cards is something a student carries or keeps, they are printed without any website branding.

Type your name and room number into the fill-in boxes before you print, and every card on the page carries them.

How to use them

1. Type your name and room number in the fill-in boxes.
2. Choose the pass you want and pick a style that suits your room.
3. Print on card stock if you want the passes to last.
4. Cut on the dashed lines.
5. Give each trip a card and collect it when the student returns.

Classroom tips

• Print on bright card stock, one color per destination, so you can tell at a glance which pass is out.
• Laminate a few and punch a hole in the corner for a lanyard or hook by the door.
• Keep a clipboard of used passes for a week if you ever need to sort out a hallway question.
• Hand out a fixed number of no-homework passes per term so they stay special.
