Mrs. Pittman's Behavior Plan
The clip chart consists of a chart that has been divided into levels. All of the children start the day on Ready to Learn. Then, during the course of the day, the children move their clothespins up or down the chart, based on the behavioral choices they make. If they are making good choices, they can move their clothespin up a level at a time. Inappropriate behavior would cause them to move down a level. Since the children start in the middle of the chart, they have numerous opportunities to work their way up the chart. This really helps the children realize that they have to have self-control and be responsible for their actions and behavior if they want to be recognized for making good choices. Making it to the top of the chart is not easy, but it is definitely attainable. The children quickly realize how they must conduct themselves in order to achieve this goal.

My students clip up when they:
- go the extra mile to help a student in need.
- are the first or second to do what I ask.
- are extra polite and respectful.
- do amazingly good work.
- interrupt me when I'm teaching.
- are disrespectful to another student or adult.
- cannot sit still or purposely keep another student from learning.
- do not behave during lunch time or specials.
