Want a good way for students to self-assess and monitor their own behaviors throughout the week?
This behavior self-assessment sheet has been instrumental in helping students become aware of their responsibilities and behaviors. The behaviors fit under the umbrella of kindness, responsibility and respect.
This sheet is editable to meet the needs of your students, or you can use the skills that I included. Each day my students take a few minutes to mark where they feel they were for that day.

Experience
Josh: I have been teaching since 2008 in middle school Language Arts and Geography. I have taught 6th and 7th grade. I work as a building and district PLC leader, tasked with finding, creating, and modeling best practice instruction.
Teaching style
I believe all students can learn in a differentiated classroom that tries to meet the needs of all learners. I am a classroom facilitator that focuses more on student learning and less on "teaching". Using formative assessment, feedback, and student self assessment around clear learning targets is key to student success.
Awards & shining teacher moments
Josh: I was privileged to have the opportunity to be a finalist for Wyoming State Teacher of the Year. I was named Goshen County School District Teacher of the Year in 2014.
My own education history
Josh: I have a Bachelors of Arts in Elementary Education and a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Chadron State College.
Additional biographical information
Josh: Married to my best friend and have the privileged of raising two wonderful young boys.
