Classrrom Timers, Behavior Managment, and Lunch Count/Attendance Resources

I hope everyone enjoys their Thanksgiving Break.  

Before break  I was thinking about what to blog because I know you all look forward to it soooo much (especially Bill Heasley at Grandview.  He’s a true blogger).  We all know that daily routines and transitions are a big part of a teacher’s effectiveness in establishing a safe and productive classroom environment.  Here are some websites and promethean activities to use in your classroom.

Online Activities

Classroom Timers

http://www.online-stopwatch.com/classroom-timers/ - This site has tones of great timers.  It is easy to use and displays well on the board.

http://timer.onlineclock.net/ - Simple timer to display with your projector.

http://www.timeme.com/timer-stopwatch.htm - Another online timer.  The noise it makes when the time runs out is hilarious.

Behavior Management

http://www.prometheanplanet.com/en-us/Resources/Item/42556/behavior-chart - The maximum amount of students is 32. I made the color scheme as neutral as possible. Feel free to edit it and modify to suit your own tastes.

http://www.prometheanplanet.com/en-us/Resources/Item/68566/rewarding-good-behavior - Set classroom and group goals for your students. Each time they follow directions or exhibit a desired behaviour they earn points on their reward chart. When the specified goal is met students erase to find a fantastic prize!
