Another behavior chart medium!

I did a little presentation last night and it was great!  Thanks any of you who are checking in here for the first time!  Welcome!  We had a great discussion and I will be sharing some tidbits in days to come. 
Also the new series I was talking about will be starting up soon so stay tuned!

This was one of the first behavior charts I made as a teacher!  It was nice because it is very concrete, sometimes even pictures as seen here are difficult for a student to understand what is going on.  This allowed for the child to see that as soon as all 3 "cups" were filled up he or she could get their reward.  This works well for younger children or children who function at a lower cognitive level.  Its made with a simple egg carton (reduce, reuse, recycle) and works great. 

For those who are new: Go here to see the basics of this type of behavior chart!  I know some of you last night asked about how to use them and here is some more detailed and important information to use!  Enjoy!

Make Your Own Wrapping Paper

So I had to make a big poster for a futures planning I did at work (I will share more about that later) and I had some extra Butcher paper.  Well, since yesterday was my mans birthday this past week my little guy and I made our own wrapping paper out of it.  I put some paint on his feet and walked him all over the paper.  It was very fun and lets be honest, whats cuter that tiny footprints?  You could also use your childrens/students artwork...or even your own, if you're good like that!!!   After he had unwrapped the presents I cut out some of the best footprints and plan on using some in his scrapbook, and some for other gifts.  Its not only resourceful but is really cute!!  Make your own!
