We will use www.classdojo.com as our main reward and debit system. Every child will begin each day with one point for coming to school ready to learn. When a child shows good character, they will be given a point. If a child breaks one of the rules (school or classroom) they will have a point taken away. The daily goal is to have mostly reward points. This system allows children to improve their behavior throughout the day. I reward and deduct points throughout the day. I will have all of the points in by 4:30 each afternoon. On Friday afternoons, students with 85% or higher positive behavior for the week can select a reward coupon. Reward coupons include bringing in a show and tell item, changing your seat for the day, a trip to the treasure box, etc.
You will be receiving information on how to log into your child's account to see what great things they did or what things need to be discussed.
Please note that I take behavior and discipline very seriously in my classroom. We
will have loads of fun learning, but in order for that to happen, students are
required to come to school ready to learn and must be on their best behavior
every single day.
