Classroom Management
In my classroom, we earn marbles as our classroom management system.
Each day, the children are rewarded with a certain amount of marbles for
good behavior as a group. They earn marbles for working hard, listening
carefully, walking nicely in the halls, etc. When we fill up our marble jar to the
halfway mark, students will earn a treat. When we fill the marble jar
completely up, we will have a bigger party!
Students may also earn treats throughout the day from the treat jars for
completing an assignment nicely, working hard, etc.
Hoot Hoot Horray Slips:
You will see green slips coming home occasionally with your kiddos. They can
earn a slip by showing outstanding behavior or hard work. When your child
receives this slip, he/she has earned a green for the day!
