Our behavior strips

Coming back from break Mrs. Sims has decided to get rid of the tallie system and begin with something new. She has put in class behavior strips with pouches on the " Cabient Of Wonder".        On the other side of the cabinet there are 5 different color pouches for what you are signing for. Instead of marking for every time you don't follow directions, you will put a colored strip in your pouch for every time you do one of these following things.

The 1st pouch is Considerate. Consideration is being considerate of another's feelings. For example, if someone asked you if they could sit by you at lunch you shouldn't say ," No I don't want you to sit by me". You could simply say," no", very politely. If you are not being considerate you will put a colored strip in your pouch.Another pouch is the  Respectful pouch. Being respectful is like not talking to someone while someone else is speaking . Then of you are being disrespectful you will put a strip in. The 3rd pouch is Responsible. Responsible means to be in charge of what is yours. For example, you have to keep track of your planner. Another pouch Is the Following Directions pouch. I think we all know what following directions are. And if you don't you will put a strip in your pouch. Finally there Is the body basics pouch. This means to keep your hands and legs to yourself  and not to touch other things. If you are not showing body basics you will put a strip in your pouch. At the end of every day, we will count how many of each strip we got and keep track of that. In the end ( the end of the week) if you don't have that many strips we will have a super citizen party. Just a few minutes to do whatever you want. I think that this will be a great expirence for us and will be a lot of fun.
