 This product will help you to create a positive environment for your classroom.  It will give you different classroom management ideas that you can implement how you feel fit.

 This product comes with:

~2 Behavior Chart Signs one with a colored background and one without a colored background

   -The behavior chart gives students the opportunity to move up or down on a chart.  It allows students to be able to keep track of their behavior.  The colors are green=Ready to Learn, blue=Making Good Choices, Purple=Being an Example, pink=WOW!! Fantastic!!, yellow=Think About It, Orange=Teacher’s Choice, Red=Parent Contact.  Students start on green.  If they make good choices then they are able to move up on the chart.  When my students get to pink I give them a sticker.  Once they have reached pink 5 times then I will have lunch with them.  Then that student will start over and will get to have lunch with me again once he/she has earned 5 stickers.  If a student goes below green then there are consequences that I have them follow. 

 ~2 different types of Behavior Logs.  One that is double-sided and one that is on one page.

    -The behavior logs go from August to July.  Each month comes with a small explanation of what the colors mean.  A reminder to parents to check their child’s folder daily, and a picture with the month next to it.  At the bottom part, it has the days of the week and boxes with the different colors.  You write the dates above each box and then copy enough for each student.  Then place the log in each student’s folder.  Each day whatever color a student is on then you circle that color.  That way parents will know how their child behaved for the day.  There is a comment section for each day if you need to use it.

~2 Parent Letters that explain how to you will use the behavior chart in your classroom

      -The first letter discusses the behavior chart and giving students a small treat like cookie crunch cereal, smarties, skittles, m&m’s, and etc, when they bring back their behavior log signed.  I give one cookie crunch cereal for every color that a student is on.  For example: if a student is on pink then that student would get 4 cookie crunch cereal cookies.  You can do that with smarties, skittles, m&m’s, and etc.  Now I do not give the whole package to a student.  I only give them one piece.  My students loved the extra treat at the end of the day.  The letter also talks about having FUN FRIDAY.  On Fridays, at the last 15 to 20 minutes, I would give my students free choice time.  This was a time that I would pull out games that they do not normally get to play with every day. 

    -The second letter discusses the behavior chart, but I left out the special treats and Fun Friday. 

~Behavior Log Daily Schedule

   -There are two different types of daily schedules.  The first one has all of the different subjects that a student learns throughout the week.  You will just have to fill in the times.  The second one is blank so you can fill in your schedule and the times.  I use the daily schedule for students that are having difficulties with behavior in my classroom.  It gives the parents and me information on what is going on with that student.

~Sticker charts come with a colored background and no background.

   -Sticker charts go with the behavior logs.  There is a sticker chart for every month.  I use my sticker charts for homework.  When a student brings back a homework page then I give them a sticker.  Once they fill the entire sticker chart then they are able to go to my treasure box. 

~This also comes with instructions on how to use the behavior chart sign, behavior logs, sticker charts, behavior chart letters, behavior log daily schedule, and ideas on classroom management.

Password with alphabet, number, color, and high frequency word cards

 Password comes with:
~password card
~alphabet cards A-Z
~number word cards zero-twenty
~basic color word cards
~high frequency word cards (the first 32 words

You can place the password card on your door. Stick a skill card on the password card that you want your students to know. Every time your students goes by the password card they have to read the "password" before entering or exiting the room.

    

 I love using this password cards in my classroom.  I use this as one of my jobs.  A student grabs the password when we get to the door.  Then each student has to tell them the password to enter the room.  If students do not say the correct word then the student is allowed to tell them to go back to the end of the line.  Most of my students know the word before entering.  I have them go to the end so they can hear the word over and over.  My thought is the more they hear then they will learn it and remember it for themselves.

Triple Consonant Blend

I just realized that Ground Hog's Day is nearing and I haven't posted my triple consonant activity.  I made this last year and my students loved it.  They enjoyed the ability to sort between the pictures, the beginning triple consonant blend, and the words.  The different consonant blends that are covered are str, scr, spl, spr, squ, thr.  

I also created another activity to go with triple consonants.  It does not have a ground hog's theme.  It is still a great activity to use when going over this skill.

I try to make worksheets to go along with any activity that I make.  I believe the more hands on learning we can provide for our students the better.  I used both activities in my whole group literacy time.  For instance: I read my students a story about ground hogs.  We discuss the story.  Then I introduce my learning activity to them.  I show them the different triple blend cards.  We discuss the sounds that they make.  Then I place those cards into a pocket chart.  After I am sure my students understand the sounds that they make I move on to using them into words.  I show them the words with the triple consonant and have them sound out the words to me.  I have a student place the word under the correct blend.  I do this for every word.  I give my students the picture cards and have them match the pictures to the words.  After I have shown them, how to sound out the words and match the picture the words, I place the triple blend cards around the room.  Then I give each student a picture or a word.  They have to go find where the blend is and place their card with it.  My students love doing this because I have already given them the answer if they were listening.  This is their opportunity to show me what they know and for them they think it is a game.  After this activity, I would place the words or the pictures around the room.  Then give them the worksheet and have them write the words into the correct blend category.  Now this sounds like a lot and it can be at first.  Once your students understand what to do it goes pretty quickly.  My students loved playing these games.  I usually allowed them to talk to their friends as long as they were getting their work done and there wasn't a lot of distractions.  You could also place the worksheet and the cards into a center.  Before placing it into a center make sure that you have done it whole group at least three times.  You want to make sure students understand what they are doing before trying to do it on their own.
