One popular method for managing student behavior in a primary classroom is the method involving the use of the three-colored stoplight (red, yellow, and green). Each day, students come to class with a clean slate, meaning they begin on green. After three warnings tied to disruptive behavior, the the student's clothespin, which is attached to the stoplight, is moved up to the yellow light. One more serious violation after the first three and the move to yellow results in a move to the red light. Teachers can decide upon the different consequences associated with each color. For confidentiality purposes, only student numbers should be written on the clothespins. No names need to be included.
Go for the GREEN!
