Clip it! Behaviour Chart
Our classroom will use a clip chart to monitor behavior. A clip chart is a great tool that allows students to be rewarded for positive behavior, while discouraging negative behavior.
Each student has a clothespin, with their number on it. Everyone will start on the green 'Ready to learn' at the beginning of each day, and clips can be moved up and down throughout the day based on behaviour. If at the end of the day the child is on super student they will receive a point, at 5 points they will have the opportunity to choose a reward card.

The Super Student level is reserved for outstanding behavior. A student who reaches this level will earn a jewel on his/her clip. After five jewels, the student will get to choose and award coupon (Example: sit with friend at lunch, extra time at recess for the class, sit in the teachers desk) Students can move to the Great Job level for continuing to display good behavior. You should be very proud of your child for reaching this level! Students will move to the Good Choices level for showing that they are making the right behavior decisions! Ending the day on this level is great! Every student will start the day on the Ready to Learn level. As the day goes on, clips can be moved up and down, based on behavior. This level is a good one to be on! A student will be moved to the Think About It level as a warning about his/her behavior, and a reminder to follow the rules. Students who continue to display poor behavior can move down to the Teacher’s Choice level. Here, the teacher can decide what action to take. Loss of recess or center time might be an appropriate choice. When a student moves to the Parent Contact level, the teacher will notify parents via note or phone call. A visit to the Principal’s office might also be in order. Students on this level may also lose recess time, etc |
