Behavior Bingo Positive Reinforcement

TPT Behavior Bingo Full Collection

BEHAVIOR BINGO BRAG BOARDS! 
Directions: 
Behavior Bingo Brag Boards are a great way to reinforce positive behaviors! These boards encourage a student to be aware of the behaviors that they need to display in the classroom. It also reminds teachers to look for and focus on positive behavior all day! 

Page 1: Print the behavior bingo board that you like and post it in your student’s agenda or on the student’s desk. You can laminate it and even enlarge it if needed. Go over the board with the student. Decide what the reward will be when they get a BINGO! I suggest something that gives them more attention like lunch or breakfast with their favorite teacher or “joke time” when they get to tell or read jokes to the class. You can aim for 4 or 5 in a row or a blackout (the whole board). Every time you catch the student displaying that behavior mark out the box on the bingo board. 

Page 2: Bingo Board for non-readers or Bucket Fillers (http://www.bucketfillers101.com/)! This can be used with the whole class or individual students. 

Page three: Make your own goals to fit the needs of a student. Send them home to help the family set goals at home as well! Three different fonts to fit a variety of ages.

Lucy Calkins Small Moments Resources First Grade

Are you using the Lucy Calkins Units of Study for Writing? I am starting to play with some resources that are helping me extend her ideas in a way that engages my first graders.I'm going to make more now that I've used the Units of Study for a year.

Unit 4 From Scenes to Series



After reading the super cute prompt about a runaway cookie at school students will write an ending to the story. This is a great writing activity for all levels of writers. 

If you are using Lucy Calkins this is a helpful lesson to go with First Grade Unit 4 Session 3 or the mini lesson: Trying more than one ending and using a partner to give feedback. 

Students can also write two endings and then work with a partner to pick the best one. 



4 differentiated templates are included. 
Mini-lesson plans included for two days
