As teachers, we know that consistency and following through is KEY when it comes to behavior management in our classrooms! This tool is not only perfect to help roll out Expected Behaviors and set a tone for the year, but it is a great kid-friendly reference tool to keep handy in the classroom when expected behaviors are not met. It will also help hold YOU the teacher accountable and make sure you follow through with the logical consequences. The best part is, it's TOTALLY EDITABLE TOO! I've provided what I use for expected behaviors in different areas along with logical consequences, but you can easily create your own to fit your teaching style. At the beginning of the year I present this as a power point. It helps give kids a clear sense of what will happen if expected behaviors are not followed. You could present one or two a day for the first few days of school or all at once. Then you could hang them in your classroom for continual reference. I like to keep them in a binder in page protectors. When a child is not following expected behaviors I pull it out and flip to the correct page. Using it as a reference tool reminds kids that these logical consequences are put in place for a reason and you are going to follow through with them. I also store the binder in my classroom library. This helps make it accessible for kids to reread in their spare time. Also, having it out constantly on display in a place where kids can see it will remind them of expectations and consequences daily. Get ready to have your sanity saved with this behavior management resource!!

A behavior notebook is a whole-class management technique for recording classroom misbehavior that integrates student reflection & ownership. It can quickly be implemented with any existing rules and discipline plan, and is used as an alternative to other methods such as a clip chart, card system, or writing names on the board.

Behavior Think Sheets for Elementary Students These printable sheets are a great way to manage student behavior. I’m a firm believer in teaching students the appropriate behaviors that should be exhibited in our schools, classrooms, communities, and homes. It’s important that students reflect on their actions and their effect on others. These classroom forms allow students to reflect and identify what they did wrong, how it made them feel, and what action would be the better choice. You can use these forms in the classroom, in-school suspension, or individual counseling sessions focusing on behavior and feelings. You will receive 7 different forms that can be used for elementary school and even middle school. These sheets aren’t very wordy and to the point. I like to describe them as kid-friendly.   Benefits: Encourages students to have a calm-down time Encourages teachers to decompress before discussing Encourages self-reflection and what went wrong Parent/Teacher documentation Used as a tool and not a punishment

I made this contract to try to hold students accountable for their behavior. It contains a list of daily responsibilities that seem to be typical for disorganized, struggling students. Responsibilities include writing down assignments in their planner, putting papers where they belong, and followi...

Accountability is an assurance that an individual or an organization is evaluated on its performance or behavior related to something for which it is responsible.

Establishing consistent accountability when using the workshop approach to teaching and learning may seem daunting at first. After all, your students are producing, and consuming an immense amount of content during workshop on a daily basis…far more than you can (and want) to grade. The good news is, you don’t have to grade every activity. I know what you’re thinking…”If I stop grading every single thing…there won’t be enough accountability.” The reality is, there are other far more efficient ways to establish accountability and boost meaningful student growth. One of these ways is routine student self-reflection. If you’re ready to bring more student reflection to your classroom, these tips can help you establish routines that maintain consistent accountability in your workshop classroom. Creating Rubrics Together A foundational rubric will help you and your students create a common language that can make ongoing assessment more meaningful and fluid in your classroom. Begin by pulling the rubric your district requires you to use, or write a rubric that communicates your parameters for each level of understanding in your classroom. Rewrite this rubric in your own student-friendly language so you can share these parameters with your class. Making a slide or poster for each level on your rubric so it is easier for students to digest may be helpful. Set aside time in your schedule each day to create a one-week series of work sessions when you and your students can rewrite the rubric again as a class using language that is actually produced by your students. You may opt to: Have all slides/posters on display simultaneously while students rotate to stations where they work in groups to make meaning of each level of understanding. Students can then write their interpretations on the slides/posters, which can be aggregated on the final day. Display one slide/poster each day and host a class conversation that facilitates meaning-making for each level of understanding. Record student ideas as you work toward a common, and final definition for each level of understanding. At the end of these series of work sessions, you and your students will have a rubric that is unpacked by them, rewritten by them, and ready to be used by them. Working together as a class to write a final rubric that will be adopted as the foundation makes conversations about assessments more meaningful and productive. Rubric Drawers Once your class rubric is created, you can make it easy for students to consistently reflect on their work by submitting any assignments to “rubric drawers” that are marked with the definitions for each level of understanding. This built-in practice of self-reflection builds students’ intrinsic motivation to reach higher and produce quality work. If you notice your students have a tendency to submit work to the “wrong” drawer, this signals they need a follow up lesson on the type of work quality required to achieve each level of understanding. Using exemplars (examples of each level of understanding from a particular subject area or activity) can help students build a stronger definition for what work quality looks like. As students build their ability to accurately assess themselves, you can also have them attach a short note of justification for their self-scoring. This will provide insight about any misconceptions they may have about their work or the rubric levels your class has written. If you want to track the score students give themselves on an activity, provide a special pen or stamp that allows them to mark their score before placing it in the drawer. In addition, you can have students submit work with the help of a partner. Once an activity is complete, a student can briefly confer with their assigned partner to get feedback, and make a decision about which drawer a piece should be submitted. This provides an additional layer of motivation for students to reach higher, as they know a peer will be reviewing their work quality. Reflection Letters Another routine that can boost student growth through self-assessment is the writing of reflection letters on a routine basis. Students thrive when they know they have an important role in their assessment process, and will be eager to read your response. Begin by creating a prompt that asks students to reflect specifically on different areas of the assignment that will support their goal setting and goal progress. Also direct students to refer to their rubric to self-assess, and provide justification for their assessment as part of their reflection process. This routine will remind students the importance of keeping the rubric in mind as they complete their work each week, which will foster stronger performance. Set aside time to read these reflection letters and write brief responses which may include your own score using the same rubric, and comments that support your scoring. This written dialogue further emphasizes the value you place on student work and growth. If you find the need to differentiate this letter writing process to support the unique needs of students in your classroom. Here are some differentiation ideas: Have students dictate as you record their reflection. Have students circle their score on a rubric and mark evidence with color-coding or sticky notes. Provide sentence frames to scaffold independence. Self Assessment & Reflection In Your Classroom Ready to give self-reflection a try in your own classroom? Here are a few editable tools to help you get started. Once you’ve established student self-reflection routines in your classroom, stop by and share your experience. I look forward to hearing about the growth your students make, and the freedom you feel from teaching in a workshop classroom where accountability and engagement are off the charts.

We experience replacement behaviors daily...with the children in our lives, people in our close circles, and even ourselves! So, what IS a replacement behavior?

I never bought into the whole Clip Chart thing. As a parent, if I saw my child was on GREEN (or whatever the acceptable color is nowadays), I would still wonder if my kid made mistakes that needed a parent's guidance, or even worse, was a complete A$$ at school. I get that kids need a chance to redeem themselves, but kids are so smart that they will goof off all day and pull it together in the last hour. I've seen it happen. So with three words, I manage the expectations and behaviors in my class: "Here's your ticket." This is such an easy system to prep and implement. After you've laid out the expectations and have a solid strategy for gaining control of your class and poor behavior (see previous post about CHAMPS and 1,2,3 Magic), you can start holding your students accountable for their own choices. There are three types of consequence tickets, three types of reward tickets, and a weekly report for parents (or daily if you have an RTI student or young ones). Also included are editable posters and tracking sheets. PLUS, a 5 page document that walks you through how to get started. Here are some photos from my classroom. Download yours today and start holding your students accountable for the rest of the year!

This article recounts an experiment I did with my class that shows just how important fair and consistent accountability is to creating a happy and well-behaved class.

This is a sheet that I use with students who need to process their behaviors. It also serves as documentation for a student's perception so we can begin to understand their locus of control. In a pinch, it can also serve as a physical apology note to hand to the person who needs the apology. I modified it from the Knock Knock version to be more school appropriate.

Behavior contracts help keep kids on track and arguments about behavior to a minimum. Use these sample behavior contracts to make one that works for your family. Get tips for how to use the contract with your child.

A behavior contract for repetitive, poor behavior in the classroom holds students accountable for their actions. This behavior contract involves not only the student and the teacher but also the students' caretaker in assuring that the behavior is being accounted for. This is generally done collectively in a meeting with the teacher, student, and caretaker (if possible), but the student should ultimately lead the conversation. There are 5 templates to choose from!

You need a concrete, visual and simplistic behavior management system that actually works. It needs to be something that students can easily comprehend, parents support, substitutes can carry out when you need to be out, and admin can back up when needed. These personal behavior clip charts are the answer. They are a part of the behavior management plan and they are an fantastic way to hold students accountable for their behavior in the classroom. Students learn accountability, respect, and responsibility when they are able to identify when they have made a poor choice (and a good choice) and how they can make a better choice the nice time. This can be taught in positive ways so that students feel good about what they have to contribute to your classroom.This resource and the behavior management plan emphasize a positive approach to classroom management and behavior. This coincides very well with a PBIS model. ************************************************************************ Included in this resource: *A description of how the personal behavior clip chart can be used and stored. *A prepared personal behavior behavior clip chart *An editable version of the clip chart for you to suit it to your needs. *A prepared parent letter that explains the behavior system to parents/guardians (also great to leave for a sub when you are out). *An editable version of the parent letter for you to suit it to fit your needs. *********************************************************************** Thank you so much for stopping by!
