For a few years now I have been doing a colour-coded {I am Canadian!!} behaviour chart. I found that throughout the year, as it was used, I was FOREVER re-stapling it to the wall. This year, I am planning on using the CRAFT and VOICES bulletin boards, thanks to Kristen at Ladybug Teaching Files{LOVE the colours and circles}, so I was thinking of sticking with the circle theme when designing my classroom this year. I am planning on following the behaviour chart steps from Littlest Learners. I love the idea of changing the colours of the clothes pins and adding stickers to them - so simple!!
So here is my new chart so far. I am going to attach all of the circles together with a thick black ribbion to hang from the wall to keep it very secure and therefore, no re-stapling. I am really liking the way that it will take up a lot less wall space as well. Oh, and I should explain that the red circle "SIR" stands for Student Incident Report...what the school sends home to the parents if the child clips to red - our school's behaviour policy.

I don't know if you remember, two years ago I had mine on plastic plates and it worked really well. I liked that the circles weren't actually attached to the wall, as they hung from ribbon. Looking good! Can't wait to see it all come together!

That's what I was planning...using ribbon. That way I could actually nail the top of the ribbon to the wall and that should keep it secure. I do remember your plates! I just wanted to be able to use the printer...can't print on plates!! lol I could have used my cricut, but that would have involved a lot more effort!! Can't wait to see you soon!
