Clip it! Behavior 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, or clip, with his or her name on it. Everyone will start on green at the beginning of each day, and clips can be moved up and down throughout the day based on behavior.
PINK-The super student level is reserved for outstanding behavior. A student who reaches this level will earn a reward, and a sticker on his/her clip. After 5 stickers, clips will be retired to the Hall of Fame and your child will receive a new clip. After 5 clips are retired to the hall of fame, he/she will receive a glitter clip.
PURPLE-The great job level is for continuing display of good behavior. You should be VERY proud of your child for reaching this level!
BLUE-The good choices level is for showing that they are making the right behavior decisions. Ending the day on this level is great!
GREEN-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!
YELLOW-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.
ORANGE-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 might be an appropriate choice. Your child will also receive a minor referral.
RED-When a student moves to the parent contact level, the teacher will notify parents via note or phone call. A major referral and visit to the principal’ office might be in order. Students on this level may also lose recess time, etc.
Your child will color in their behavior chart in their take home folder daily. Please discuss your child’s behavior with them and initial in the square. If your child receives anything below green, I will document the number of the rule broken for you.
