Reducing Problem Behaviour using a function based intervention. Here I combined the first and then with the three star reward token boards and came up with this Behaviour Management Tool. Everythin…
Yesterday, I posted about the idea behind our yearly home visits. Today, I wanted to share some materials I have created for students/parents to use at home. First off, some behavior resources. I have given parents a copy of this "Good behavior" and "Bad behavior" list we keep posted in our classroom. If timeout is successful in reducing an attention maintained behavior at school, then I will give the parents some time out visuals. I may give them a visual they can post on the wall for a designated time out space, or just a picture to carry with them in the purse (in case they need it in the community). I also LOVE this 3 strikes visual my coworker came up with! After each time a child engages in the behavior, a strip is removed from the visual. When all three strips are removed, the student receives time out. Another common visual I give to parents is an "I am working for" card. These can vary in how they look. Some are token systems (like the one pictured below) while others are more like a "First-Then" set-up. For the token card, students receive stars as they engage in positive behaviors (doing work or chores, staying quiet, keeping hands to themselves, etc). Once they receive 5 stars, they receive a reward of their choosing (at home this could be TV, video games, snack, etc.). I make parents pictures of each childs' preferred items to velcro onto the "I am working for" card. Another area I like to focus on during the home visits is chores/housework the child can do at home to help out the family. I created a "chore list" for parents to choose from (I have adapted this for individual students as well). To go with some of the chores, I have also created some visuals. For instance for laundry, I have created labels for sorting laundry (color clothes vs. white clothes). Parents can put these labels on two different laundry baskets/hampers, or they can just throw them on the floor and have the child sort clothes that way. I also have created clothes labels to go on drawers or in closets so that my students can help with putting away their laundry or finding clothes to get themselves dressed in the morning. Some other supports I have created have to do with creating routines in the home. I created a "dinner choice board" to aid students in communicating to their parents what they would like to eat at home. A shower routine to help remind kids to wash all the major body parts. A weather board to help with anxiety around cloudy/rainy weather. A brief schedule of "getting a haircut" for a student who struggled with behavior at the barbershop. It's nice to have these to draw from and adapt for each child in my classroom. After posting about this, I am starting to get super excited about these home visits. Tomorrow, my goal is to make the materials parents are requesting (bring on the laminator!).

We are not perfect and we all make mistakes. But what if we make a mistake, what do we do? Here is a game to see if you can rectify the problem and do it correctly. Sink or Swim?- Directions: Place your markers on START. Players roll the die and move (swim) that many spaces. Players must follow the directions on the space that they land on. If they land on a drowning in sin picture, they draw a card and read it out loud. On the cards are life problems that the player must state what they should do to rectify the situation. If they are correct, they receive a life saver token. If they are not correct, they do not receive a token. If the player lands on a space that is already occupied by another, BUMP that player back to the START space. Players work their way to the life saver at the end of the board. The player with the most life saver tokens wins. This game is free, however it is only to be used for classroom and personal use. It may not be published on any websites or other electronic media, or distributed in newsletters, bulletins, or any other form or sold for profit. Reproduction or retransmission of any materials, in whole or in part, in any manner, is not permitted. Sink or Swim- Directions, Game Board, Game Cards, Tokens

It's Saturday, so it's time to link up with my BBB Joanne from Head Over Heels for Teaching for Spark Student Motivation! The weeks leading up to spring break were absolutely horrible with chattiness -- talk, talk, talk. I'm talking about the kind of talk when there shouldn't be talk. I know the kids were excited -- I was excited -- be we still had some learning to do! So I came up with this very simple, yet powerful, way to control all of the talking. I call it Beat the Teacher. It basically is a game of you versus the students, and who doesn't love a little friendly competition? The way it works is that when I need the class to quiet down, I start counting backwards from five: 5-4-3-2-1. Sometimes the count is quiet, sometimes loud. Sometimes it's fast, sometimes very slow. Either way, the students have to be listening... If I get to "1" and there is even one student talking, I get the tally point. If the entire class is quiet, they get the point. It is awesome to watch the students try to quiet each other down. Points accumulate through the day (or week) As you can see from our score above, I lost this day. :) (But did I really???) The prize is simply bragging rights....Or it could be a simple class incentive (brain break? extra 5 minutes of recess?) Either way, we are all winners! Before I go, I wanted to make sure that you knew about a wonderful fundraiser going on over at Tori's Teacher Tips. The blogger community has an amazing way of supporting one another, and Tori could definitely use our help right now. I'm looking forward to reading the rest of the motivational ideas over at Joanne's blog. I hope to see you there! I also hope to see you back here tomorrow for my Sunday linky party, A Peek at My Week, and/or onThursday for Positive Thinking Thursday. Happy Saturday!!
