The Clip Chart

The Teaching Thief-Another take on the clip chart (includes forms for tracking data)

I recently discovered the clip chart behavior plan on Pintrest. This chart focuses on encouraging good behavior to minimize bad behavior. Basically, the kids move up and down the chart based on their choices throughout the day. Good choices send them skyward, and poor choices bring them back to down to Earth. I plan on using this chart next year with my 1st graders!!!

Why haven't I done this before

I originally created this blog for the sole purpose of a Master's class assignment. However, since I have began my journey in the world of blogging I have decided that I will continue blogging even after my course is completed. I honestly have never been all that interested in blogging but after starting my blog an viewing other educators blogs, I think that this is something that I would like to keep doing. I am also planning to change the purpose of my blog. Technology will not be the only focus of this blog. I want to add classroom ideas and activities to my blog. I am very excited and I hope that other educators will benefit from my post!!!
