Mrs. Brown’s Behavior Plan
Our class will use a clip chart to monitor behavior. The clip chart is a great tool that allows students to be rewarded for positive behavior, while discouraging negative behavior.
Each student has a clothespin, or clip, with his or her name on it. Everyone will start on green (Ready to Learn) at the beginning of each day, and clips can be moved up or down throughout the day based on behavior. You will see a colored dot on your child’s behavior/snack calendar every day to reflect the clip they ended the day on.
Pink (Outstanding) – This level is reserved for Outstanding behavior. A student who reaches this level will earn a special note home congratulating them on this fantastic day. Praise is required if your child earns a pink dot!
Purple (Great Job) – Students can move to Great Job for continually displaying good behavior throughout the day. You should be very proud of your child for reaching this level!
Blue (Good Day) – Students will move to the Good Choices level for showing that they are making the right behavior decisions. Ending the day on the level is great!
Green (Ready to Learn) – Every student will start the day here. As the day goes on, clips can be moved up or down based on behavior. Ready to Learn is a good place to be.
Yellow (Think About It) – A student will be moved to the Think About It level as a warning about his/her behavior, and a reminder to follow the rules.
Orange (Teacher’s Choice) – Students who continue to display poor behavior can move down to the Teacher’s Choice level. Here, the teacher will decide what action to take based on the behavior. Loss of center time might be appropriate in this case.
Red (Parent Contact) – When a student moves to the Parent Contact level, the teacher will notify parents via email, note or phone call. A visit to the Principal’s office might also be in order.
Whew! I know this is a lot to soak in, but rest assured that I will explain it fully to your children and they will be motivated to make good choices. Please encourage your child at home and deal with inappropriate behavior immediately. Always contact me if you have any concerns. Thank you so much for your help in making this a successful year for your kindergartener.
