    Dear Fabulous First Grade Parents, 

     

     

     

              This year I will be using a colored “clip chart” to monitor our behavior and classroom choices.  Your child will have a clip that they will physically move up or down the chart, depending on their choices.  Please keep in mind that your child may not move every single day!  In order to move up, students must go above and beyond in their behavior choices.  The chart below explains how the clip chart works. 

     

     

     

    Outstanding!

    6

    Students who reach outstanding will be rewarded for their positive choices by receiving a special certificate of recognition. Your child will receive 2 stars in their agenda.

    Great Job

    5

    Students who continue to make positive choices move up to the great job.  They are one step closer to having outstanding classroom behavior! Your child will receive 1 star in their agenda.

    Good Day!

    Students who make positive choices will receive recognition as they move up the chart. Your child will receive a happy face in their agenda. 

    Ready to Learn!

    3

     

    Everyone starts the day “Ready to Learn”! Students can “clip up” or “clip down” throughout the day depending on their behavior choices. Your child will receive a happy face in their agenda.   

    Think About It!

    2

    Students who receive a warning will move to THINK ABOUT IT.  This serves as a reminder to students to think about the choices they make. Your child will receive a straight face in their agenda. 

    Teacher’s Choice!

    1

    Students who continue to make poor choices, will move to TEACHER'S CHOICE.  This will result in a loss of 5 minutes of recess. Your child will receive a sad face in their agenda. 

    Parent Contact

    0

    Students who move to PARENT CONTACT will miss recess in its entirety.  During that time, students will complete a behavior reflection log to be signed by a parent.  Parents will be contacted via telephone. Your child will receive a sad face in their agenda.  

     

     

     

            I believe that this system will be a positive way for students to monitor their choices and will give them behavior goals to strive for!  As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to call or email me.

     

     

     

    Thanks,
