I use ClassDojo and a behavior clip chart to manage behavior. We have switched to personalized learning and a teacher next to me says that this is not conducive to personalized learning and good behavior is expected and shouldn’t be rewarded. Has anyone given up the clip method and how does this work for you?

Let go of the clips. Lose dojo too. Too abstract for littles. Use a tangible reward or token economy.

What is personalized learning? I only use Dojo to post class news and pictures and send messages to families. I don’t use any behavior management system- just clear, consistent rules and expectations for students and a focus on social emotional learning. Definitely stop using the clip chart if you can. Behavior is communication and a function of need. Using rewards or shaming to control behavior is harmful to children’s emotional development!

Is anyone else returning to fully in person learning? We have been hybrid/synchronous since September, which has been very hard and not very effective. They want us to have all Kindergarten students come back in March. I want to stop live teaching over google meet all day while also teaching my students in person at the same time, but there is not enough space in my classroom for safe distancing, not enough space for movement, and sitting at a desk all day is not appropriate for K kids!
