Behavior Plan
Mrs. Simmons Behavior plan
In your child’s classroom, a behavior management program
called the clip chart is used. Each child has a clip on the clip chart.
Every student starts their clip on ready to learn. The student has the chance to move their clip up or down throughout the day depending upon the choices that they make. Moving to the top of the chart is not easy, but definitely attainable. The student will have the chance to clip up to the top of the chart by displaying outstanding behavior all day. This level will be celebrated and rewarded! If the student reaches Teacher’s choice or Parent Contact, the student may have to sit out of in-school activities such as free-play or they may have silent lunch. This level also insures that the parent will be contacted either by email, note, or phone. The children quickly realize how they must conduct themselves in order to stay on the positive side of the clip chart. Your child’s color for the day will be marked in their calendar. There will be space left in the block to sign indicating that you have seen the color they have received that day. I look forward to working together this year!
