Behavior Management Linky Party

What the Teacher Wants is doing a Linky Party for Managing Classroom Behavior!

I started my Clip Chart Management system when school started a few weeks ago and it is working great! I got my clip chart for free from Live Love Laugh Kindergarten.

The kids LOVE moving their clips up the clip chart! They are also quickly discouraged from in appropriate behaviors when they see someone else making good choices and getting to move their clothespin up the clip chart. Of course the lower levels are for students who are making inappropriate choices or not following class and school rules.

Sorry! Blogger would not let me rotate this picture!

I have been rewarding my students who get to to the top of the clipchart by getting a sticker on a card. When they get 5 stickers, they can get a treat from the treasure chest. My treasure chest has all kinds of fun prizes inside like happy meal toys, pencils, and books.

In order to communicate with parents, I send home a monthly behavior calendar with the color their child ended the day on. If the child ends the day on pink, purple, blue, or green, I just color the color in. If the color is on the bottom of the chart, I color in the circle and write the reason for the move. This helps the parents understand their child's behavior better.

More Behavior Calendars

I have updated some more behavior calendars for my kinder's homework folders. I hope you can use them too!

November Behavior Calendar

December Behavior Calendar

I have had a request for a 5 day calendar that is generic so here it is. I hope you can use it. I uploaded it as a Word document so you can change the dates when you download and add your own clipart.

Behavior Clip Chart & Calendars

For the upcoming school year, I am planning to begin using one of the famous clip charts I have seen on so many blogs this year. This is the one I am using since I am doing a polka dot theme in my classroom. It is from Live, Love, Laugh Everyday in Kindergarten and it was free! Click on the picture below to go to her blog and pick up your copy of the clip chart.

I am in the process of adapting my monthly behavior calendars to fit the clip chart. These are very general with only Monday to Thursday for each week since I don't send home homework folders on Fridays (They won't come back to school on Monday!). I hope you can use them too! If you need me to change anything, please let me know!


Here are the ones I have adapted so far:

August Behavior Calendar

September Behavior Calendar

October Behavior Calendar

As I get my other calendars updated, I will post them. I am planning to use my summer copies to begin running these behavior calendars for the upcoming school year.
