BEHAVIOR EXPECTATIONS Individual Rewards and Consequences: I use the color card system in my classroom. Each
child begins the day on blue. This means they are having a great day and
making great choices. If the student is not following a rule, he or she may
be asked to turn their card to green. A green card is a visual reminder that
they need to make better choices or change their behavior. If a student
continues to not follow the rules he or she will be asked to change their
card to yellow. This is another warning to the child that he or she needs to
make better choices. The last card to be turned is a red card. At this point
the student will be asked to take a 5 minute time out. I do not like to take
recess away from students, but will if behavior is extreme. If a student
receives a red card, I will send home a red card to be signed by the parent
that night. If the card is not returned and signed with a parentŐs signature
the following day, I will call home. A star card is
given to a few students per day. Students receive star cards for excellent
behavior and for setting a good example. When the student has received 5 star
cards, he or she can choose a reward from the treasure chest. A studentŐs
cards can move between colors throughout the day. WHOLE CLASS REWARDS When the
class is on task as a whole, I will put a few marbles into the classroom
marble jar. I let the class vote on what they would like as their reward.
They also choose a time frame as to when they believe they can achieve this
goal. When the marble jar is, full they receive their reward. It could be
lunch with the teacher, 10 minutes of free time, cookies, etcÉ |
