Class Dojo

I have tried several different behaviour systems in my classrooms. I have two favourites. One is the amazing clip chart, which I adore! I started out with one from the lovely Clutter Free Classroom and then progressed to using another rock star one (which I can't for the life of me find a link for but I will search for it!).

I was then introduced to Class Dojo by one of the other teachers at our school and I absolutely adore it! If you haven't seen it, then go and have a look! My school is very heavily invested in improving the meaningful use of ICTs and this is one way to do it! The kids absolutely love it because they can check themselves in each day and they love to see their points accumulating. The small 'ding' sound effect is perfect for proximal phrase because as soon as they hear it they all sit up straight and immediately fall silent. Love, love, love!

This is not to mention the fabulous reports that are developed! Perfect record of a child's behaviour - such a helpful tool when writing behaviour comments on report cards!
