2. Clip Charts seem to be very popular currently among the teacher/
blogger population. I favor using one because it can provide an
immediate consequence that is visual accompanied by a quick verbal
statement. (ex. “Clips move down if we shout.)
Having positive levels on a clip chart brings the focus to appropriate
behaviors that your students are showing. Focusing only on negative will
not bring behavioral improvement.
My classroom chart is tied to our class level system, which includes
parties, treasure box, snacks, choice time, or incentives worked out
through individual behavior contracts. If you teach in a general
education environment, the clip chart alone could be sufficient. Use
your own professional judgment and knowledge of your student
population.
Instructions: I’m not trying to be condescending, this is just in case. . .
Print, arrange levels from highest to lowest, trim up, and glue together.
Lamination will provide durability. Punch a hole at the top. Command
strip hooks are awesome to attach it to the wall. Add clothespins.
DONE!
