Class Dojo

Today a colleague and I were trying to set up a behavior system for a newly formed program for students with behavior issues.  The students will be self contained till the end of the year in the hopes that we can use data to make appropriate placement for the fall.  After much discussion, I suggested we try Class Dojo to set up the behavior expectations.  After about a 1/2 hour, we had the expectations listed and the point system all set up.  It was so easy and the parents were really glad that the daily report can be emailed directly to them at the end of the day.  Class Dojo will be a great way to start the year in the fall.  Check it out!

  1. How I needed to find something like this after the day I had with two of my students. They too are on behavior modifications and use a reward system (already in place when I took over). Last week, they were responding well. This afternoon, not so great! I can't wait to see what this has to offer- Thank you!

  2. How great that you were able to put it to use so quickly! I love the idea of emailing a daily report home...no more copies needed to keep a record! I will certainly look into this more.
