Behavior Management
Our class will be using an economy system through Classcraft and clip chart. Students will receive points when displaying correct behavior and will lose points due to misconduct. With Classcraft students are able to build their characters when receiving points and HP. Also with the clip chart students will have to move their clips up for positive behavior and down for negative behavior. If a student reaches parent contact they will be issued a detention.
