Teacher Ideas

I forgot-I also send home every Friday a behavior sheet that I have made up which documents behavior Monday through Friday-made easy with check marks on which behaviors I have seen. I also write a parent letter every week detailing what we have done, what we are going to do and reminders of tests or projects coming up. Parents are informed and I am able to say that I have apprised them of anything important. They have to sign the behavior sheet and send it home with their child on Monday. If the child does not bring the signed sheet or folder by Tuesday, they miss recess until I get it. That way I KNOW they KNOW their child's behavior week by week (phone calls are also included if big problems arise!)
