Here you will find all you need to know about our behavior plan, ClassDojo. Dojo is a new online teacher tool, www.classdojo.com, I will be using to help build your student’s learning habits and boost classroom engagement. ClassDojo allows me to track student behavior and learning skills throughout the day!
One of the great features of ClassDojo is that it allows me to send you a “behavior and skills report” every Friday by email. My hope is that this will bring you and me closer together and help you better understand the progress of your student on a week to week basis. You will be able to see what they did well and what they need to work on. I can also leave brief comments daily or weekly.
Students will work to earn points for completing homework each day and "popping" in math and science. (P-prepared, O-on task, P-participation) Students can earn extra points by going above and beyond in class. Students will lose a point for not completing homework or not being prepared, not cooperating, being off task, bullying, and talking out of turn. Students will have an opportunity to see their progress several times a day and will be able to log in to their accounts from home and school as well.
I will be sending an invitation for those who prefer online communication about your child's behavior. Your child will work towards points that will then equate to free time every other week. On the flip side, students in the negative will have to write an apology letter, receive a call to their parent, or begin a behavior plan with me. This will depend on the amount of negative points received.
If you do not use e-mail or the internet often, you have no need to fret! I will send you a printed out copy of your child’s behavior in place of the e-mailed report.
