That way they are out of sight from everyone and will also help with the temptation to play with them. This is a wonderful idea!

Ever since I read this blog post (http://teachinginprogress.blogspot.com/2012/10/why-i-will-never-use-behavior-chart.html) I've been trying to find something else to use. We've always used a clip chart at our school and the parents come to expect it and know to look for it. I've always wanted to find something else, but I still needed that parent communication part of letting them know how their child's day was. I really like this idea and I definitely want to try it out in my room next year! Thanks!<br /><br />Katie :)Katie P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00249997310412526725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327491756914650700.post-8197971706660983292013-06-16T12:18:08.599-05:002013-06-16T12:18:08.599-05:00This would even work for older students...

In their take-home folders, I have a calendar page for the month are in. On the correct date, I would use the matching color marker to record the data. At the end of the month, I took the calendars out of the folder and stored them in a data folder for referencing. Hope that makes sense! :) I'm so glad you enjoyed my post!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796516778304104557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327491756914650700.post-74691183370156091232013-06-06T08:24:09.614-05:002013-06-06T08:24:09.614-05:00This is such a fantastic idea.

At my school, we are using a school wide behavior program as our Tier 1 behavior program so at this moment I can not deviate from that. We have to record what color sticks were pulled each day. Thanks for the wonderful idea. I am so glad I came across your blog.

My tables aren't big enough for that, I think. I also liked the simplicity of just 4 colors because I doubt I could keep up with 7! Velcro is smart! Does velcro come off tables easily? Always wondered that!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796516778304104557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327491756914650700.post-698814790755869192013-06-04T20:16:45.946-05:002013-06-04T20:16:45.946-05:00Love your idea!

Since I have 7 colors on mine, I might try a wooden paint stirrer and attach it to the desk with Velcro, with a Velcro clip the kiddos can move around.

Initials is a good idea, too! I did have some issues with kids playing with clips, but I stopped it by having them clip down if they were playing with them. I only had to do that for about a week before they got the message. ;)Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05796516778304104557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4327491756914650700.post-64523596852318379382013-06-04T09:19:47.034-05:002013-06-04T09:19:47.034-05:00I addressed that issue quickly by saying, "If...I addressed that issue quickly by saying, "If you play with the clip, you clip down." (i.e., I wasn't very nice haha!) I would give them the look and they would remember the rule of clips. After about a week or reminders, the kids typically left them alone. Nobody wanted orange! :) The main thing about that rule is being consistent. Now, if they were working hard after the clip down, they could obviously move back up.

I like the individual clips a lot, but wonder if you had problems with kids playing with them.Karla Heleoteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08097871700391637963noreply@blogger.com
