Less than $5 Classroom Management Resources (by date, oldest first)

Students can complete this behavior tracker to show how well they were able to:

Follow directions

Participate

Have a positive attitude

Stay on task

Complete work

I added room for the teacher to write in how many (if any) prompts are acceptable to follow directions and stay on task. I also left room for a percentage of work that should be completed. I know often my special education students struggle to complete assignments due to lack of focus, etc. So I might put that one student needs to complete 70% of his assignment and then gradually increase it. There is space for that to be written in in the chart.

Students can choose a big smiley face, a small smiling face, and a frowning face to show how well they were able to maintain the directives. At the bottom there is room for teacher signature and comments. At the top, the student has space to write what assignment he or she is assessing.

Two sheets print per page to save paper.

Keep this quick reference guide for classroom behavior management strategies and interventions handy for when difficult behaviors arise in the classroom.

Print the Classroom Behavior Management Strategies and Interventions Quick Reference Guide on cardstock (laminate if preferred) and punch a hole in the top left corner. Use a binder ring to secure the pages together.

Use page 1 of quick reference guide as a way to determine an idea of the function of your student’s behavior. The box with the greatest number of checks should be considered as a possible function of the behavior. NOTE: THIS QUICK REFERENCE DOES NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A FUNCTIONAL BEHAVIOR ASSESSMENT FOR SIGNIFICANT BEHAVIORS.

After determining a possible function, flip to the page of the book for that function to see a list of behavioral strategies to alleviate the negative behavior. Behavioral interventions are also suggested by function. NOTE: THESE STRATEGIES AND IDEAS FOR INTERVENTION DO NOT AND SHOULD NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF A BEHAVIOR INTERVENTION PLAN.

Looking for a way to learn the function of a student's behavior? I've got you covered with this Behavior Data Collection Sheet. This can be used as part of an official functional behavior analysis or as a way to learn how your students communicate their needs.

What's Included?

• A one-page guide to collecting ABC data (antecedent, behavior, consequence) to determine a hypothesis as to the function of a student's behavior.
• ABC Data collection page (printable)

Why do you need this?

There is a student in your classroom who struggles to express their wants or needs in an appropriate way. You want to alleviate the problematic behavior by discovering the behavior's function so you can find an alternate replacement behavior that serves the same function in a way that is more appropriate for the classroom.

How can I help?

Reach out to me on Instagram at www.instagram.com/rebekahpoeteaching or email me at lessonsandlattes2018@gmail.com. I'd love to answer any questions you may have.

Because every needs a little motivation now and then.

Easy to use!

1. Print the pdf on a plain sheet of paper to make your template.

2. Cover the boxes with sticky notes (make sure all stickies are going the same direction with the sticky side on top).

3. Place your paper back in your printer tray facing the direction your printer prints (for mine- I put my paper upside down; I HIGHLY recommend testing a plain sheet of paper to determine the direction you'll need to place your paper).

4. Peel the stickies off and repeat as many times as you want.

5. Spark smiles!

Leave on your students' desks for them to find when they first come in, or pass them out during class as you see students working hard. You can also leave them as little notes of encouragement for your teacher friends!

Teachers can utilize these resources to teach students how to self-regulate their emotions and request a break if necessary. Directions and tips are included on the second page of the PDF, but I encourage you to check out my blog post here highlighting how I use these in my classroom.

If you are looking for a way to make sure your students' families have all of the important information they need- from ways to contact you to the school to important dates. There's even a page where you can add a picture of your school/district calendar!

Contains editable pages for school contact, teacher contact, dates to know, and school calendar. The "Dates to Know' comes pre-designed for a special education teacher, but there is a blank "Dates to Know" page if you do not need IEP information.

Prints in black and white so you can use colorful paper to save ink (if you desire).

Check out the video preview to see it in action.

Este archivo le será de gran utilidad a la hora de hacer un seguimiento de entrega de las distintas tareas que usted propone a sus alumnos en distintas plataformas online, como Seesaw por poner un ejemplo. He puesto las asignaturas de Lectura y Sociales, la de matemáticas y la de Ciencias Naturales pues son las que me competen, pero si usted imparte distintas materias, sólo tiene que cambiarles el nombre.

En la primera pestaña, la de color amarillo, podrá ver una visión clara y rápida de cómo están trabajando cada uno de sus alumnos. En esta pestaña no tiene que meter más datos que el nombre de sus alumnos y el ID si se deseara.

Será en las otras tres pestañas, las referentes a las asignaturas mencionadas, donde se marcará con un simple clic quién realiza cada una de las tareas asignadas. A mis alumnos les mando una tarea diaria de cada asignatura. Se nos mostrará el número de tareas realizadas y la nota semanal de cada alumno, siendo el baremo el siguiente: un 1 si entregan 1 tarea, un 2 si entregan 2, un 3 si entregan 3, y un 4 si entregan 4 o 5 tareas. Cambie la fórmula de la columna "nota" si usted tiene un baremo distinto.

En la primera pestaña, la llamada "Inicio", aparecerá de forma automática el número de tareas que cada alumno realizó cada semana y en cada asignatura, pero la nota que aparece es la nota media de cada una de las semanas hasta la fecha. Da igual si su trimestre es de nueve semanas o menos, los datos que aparezcan siempre serán acordes al número de semanas introducidos. Si usted dejó de meter datos en la semana siete, las notas serán automáticamente una nota media en base a siete semanas y no a nueve.

Por último, la pestaña naranja, la llamada "Tareas semanales", me sirve para saber quién me entrega la tarea semanal, una única entrega por semana. En ella se marca quién entrega esta tarea y se nos muestra el número total de tareas presentadas y el porcentaje que representa en cada una de las semanas. Así pues, si un alumno presenta la tarea las tres primeras semanas, reflejará un 100% en cada una de ellas, pero si no vuelve a entregar ninguna el porcentaje irá disminuyendo paulatinamente hasta la última semana de evaluación.

This file will be very useful when it comes to tracking the delivery of the different homework that you propose to your students on the different online platforms, for example, Seesaw or Google Class, for up to 9 weeks.

 I have put the subjects of Language Arts and Social Studies, Mathematics and Natural Sciences because they are the ones that concern me, but if you teach different subjects, you just must rename them. 

In the "Home" tab, the yellow one, you can see a clear and quick overview of how each of your students is working. In this tab, you don't have to enter more data than the name of the students and the ID if desired. It will be in the other three tabs, those referring to the mentioned subjects, where you will mark with a simple click who performs each of the assigned tasks. 

I use to send them a daily exercise for each subject. It will show us the number of daily homework performed and the grade of each student in each of the weeks. The range used is the following: a "1" if they deliver a weekly homework, a "2" if they deliver two, a "3" if they deliver three, and a "4" if they deliver four or five tasks throughout the week. Change the formula in the "Grade" column if you have a different string. 

In the first tab, called "Home", the number of assignments performed by each student in each subject will appear automatically below every week´s column. The grade that appears is the average grade for all the weeks to date. It does not matter if your quarter is nine weeks or less, the data that appears will always be according to the number of weeks entered. If there were no more than seven weeks, the marks will automatically be an average mark based on seven weeks and not nine. 

Finally, the orange tab helps me to know who gives me a series of WEEKLY exercises that in my class we call “Weekly homework”. It is marked who gives it and it shows us the total number of weekly tasks submitted and the percentage that it represents to date. So, if a student submits the Weekly Assignment for the first three weeks, it will reflect 100% in all of them, but if they stop delivering them, the percentage will gradually decrease until the last evaluation week. On the contrary, if the student does not present anything the first two weeks, but he does in the third, in the first two you could see 0% and in the third 33%, since that is what it represents to date.
