I know I've posted about ClassDojo before, but if you haven't checked it out, now is the time! Okay, so you're probably thinking "I already have a million things to worry about, where will I find the time to worry about something else?" Well, fear not, because ClassDojo is super easy to use, and really takes no time at all! Actually, the most time consuming part of using ClassDojo is setting up the account - and really, all that involves is typing in your students' names. (So, it's really not that bad). Now, any teacher knows that students learn best when they make the rules, right? So why not let your students decide what they will be rewarded for? That's what I did, and guess what...it worked like a charm. When your students decide what they will earn and lose points for, they are more likely to follow the rules and try to earn as many points as they can. It's worth they try! Actually, if you check out ClassDojo, once you create an account, you can try out a demo class and see how it works. Take a look at this video...it's sure to get you thinking about how your students will benefit from ClassDojo.
Looks good, right? How about the fact that parents get weekly email updates about their child's behaviors. And like I said, it's really no work at all. So, take some time this summer and try out ClassDojo - it'll be sure to make a difference in the way your students act!
