I was temporarily teaching a self-contained 6th grade class. I needed a way to evaluate daily behavior and give the kids easy-to-understand expectations. This really hit the mark! After reviewing them several times as a class, we utilized the 1-2-3-4 system by having the students self-evaluate each day in their planners. I would then quickly review with each student and record their scores as part of my behavior grades. We also attached daily reflection scores to "party points." We were working to get 1000 points as a class to earn a party. 3s got us 1 point, and 4s got us 5 points. So you better believe that students REALLY wanted to earn those 4s! Great way to teach self-accountability, reflection, and high expectations.
