Use these printable behavior management punch cards to keep track of your students' behaviors through positive reinforcement. Every time a child exhibits a desired behavior, you use a paper punch to make a hole in the card. When all of the holes in the card are punched, the child gets a reward. It is easy to differentiate your classroom behavior management because each child can have their own punch card with their own individualized goals and incentives.

School counselors or behavioral specialists can use these cards to help children work towards goals. They are also great for home use as rewards for doing chores, potty learning or finishing homework.

This set of punch cards has an "outer space" theme and includes ten unique cards.

THIS IS A HUGE BUNDLE of Adaptive Books! This huge bundle includes adapted books for all holidays, counting, colors and much more!

Right now there are 40 sets of adapted books included in this set worth $208.00! Each set includes multiple books giving you approximately 106 books to use with your students! PLUS, as I make additional books I just throw them into this set! These books will provide additional support and resources to your classroom all school year!

What is included?

This set includes a plethora of resources and it will keep you busy throughout the school year! I have included animals, holidays, counting, shapes, colors and more.

While many sets are made with the early literacy / early math skills in mind there are also books that can be used as your students grow their skills. I have even my biggest sellers are included in this massive bundle of 40 products!

Why Adapted books?

I personally love using adapted books. I have found them to be motivating to even my most reluctant learners. They are a great resource for such a wide range of learners as well as I can easily modify my instruction for the needs of each student.

I have used them with students who are just learning to sit in their seats and follow directions. Adapted books can easily be modified for students by providing less visual options.

I have also used them with student who are reluctant learners. They may already be confident in the skills presented in the books, however benefit from a learning activity they know they will do succeed with. It is a great starting activity!

Do you have a student who is working on identifying "wh" questions? Place a post it note over picture on each page. Read, ask the "wh" question, and your student can check their answer by checking under the post it note.

Once I have my books prepared they are sturdy, easily cleaned & stored. I store mine in a crate that supports hanging folders. They are sorted by topic and easy to grab and go. We use them in stations, with substitutes, my classroom aides, and when student want to read with peers. They are often requested as well!

How are they prepared?

These books do require some prior prep work. Once they have been created however they are able to be used year after year with a variety of students. I generally print, laminate, bind and velcro them so they can be reused. The adaptive books are designed with students ability to interact with learning material. Each book has interactive icons. Students will have options of 8-10 choices for each story.

So, why wait?

These fun and engaging posters aim to foster independence and autonomy in the French Immersion classroom for your young K-2 students. Posters are used as visual cues and reminders of morning routines helping students to do things on their own. Ideal for the Kindergarten to Grade 2 classroom.

I use these posters in my cubby area as a visual checklist for students each day as they arrive. I also post visual cues for work time with the order of operations for each task. 1. write your name, 2. colour, 3. cut, 4. glue, and 5. raise your hand. The order is for you to choose.

When my students are brand new to cutting and pasting into scrapbooks they: write their name, cut, raise their hand (so I can check before they glue), glue, and then colour. It’s entirely up to you!

Posters include:

Each poster great graphics so students can easily associate the picture with the action. Clear step by step instructions. Regular sized poster so you can copy and go, or larger sized numbers and cards for placing into pocket charts.

Slogans included:

Je mange: 1. sac à diner, 2. reste assis, 3. range mon sac, 4. jette les déchets, et 5. nettoie

Je travaille: 1. écris ton nom, 2. découpe, 3. colle, 4. lève la main, et 5. colorie

Le matin: 1. sac à diner, 2. cahier de communication, 3. bouteille d’eau, 4. souliers, et 5. faire le travail matinale

Appropriate audience:

I use these posters in my French Immersion classroom with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students. I feel confident that they could be used for any grade from K-6 and for those students with IEP or special needs learning in a French environment.

What grade level:

I personally use these texts with Grade 1 and Grade 2 students in French Immersion. I feel confident that students from Kindergarten to Grade Three will find these most useful and teachers can come back to the texts with any students who may be experiencing challenges in their French reading skills. Core French teachers will be sure to add the resource to their repertoire for Grades 4 to 6 as they learn to read and write at the Junior level.

Benefits:

• Enhanced Observational Skills: Drawing facial expressions and hairstyles requires keen observation of subtle details like the curve of a smile, the tilt of a head, or the flow of hair strands. This practice sharpens students' ability to notice and appreciate the nuances of human features.
• Improved Fine Motor Skills: The delicate strokes needed for drawing facial features and hair help refine students' fine motor skills, leading to greater dexterity and control in their hand-eye coordination.
• Boosted Creativity: This activity encourages students to think creatively as they experiment with different expressions, hairstyles, and artistic styles. They can express their imagination and develop unique interpretations of emotions and appearances.
• Enhanced Emotional Understanding: By drawing various facial expressions, students gain a deeper understanding of how emotions are visually conveyed. This can improve their ability to recognize and empathize with the feelings of others.
• Development of Spatial Awareness: Drawing requires students to accurately represent three-dimensional features on a two-dimensional surface. This practice helps develop their spatial awareness and understanding of perspective.
• Self-Expression: Art provides a powerful outlet for self-expression. Students can use this activity to communicate their thoughts, feelings, and ideas in a visual way.
• Stress Relief: Engaging in creative activities like drawing can be a relaxing and enjoyable way to reduce stress and anxiety.
• Improved Academic Performance: Studies have shown that engaging in creative activities can enhance cognitive functions such as problem-solving, critical thinking, and memory.

Overall, Facial Expression and Hairstyle Drawing Practice is a versatile activity that promotes holistic development, fostering creativity, observational skills, fine motor skills, and emotional understanding while offering a fun and engaging way for students to express themselves.
