Classroom Management - Behavior Management Plan - Tools, Strategies, Rewards

High academic and behavior expectations can go hand-in-hand with a positive, nurturing classroom environment! More than any tangible reward you can give them, adolescents crave meaningful positive recognition.

Engaging, student-friendly, and ready to print-and-go, this resource is chock-full of positive behavior management tools and activities that will save you loads of time and set your students up for success all year long! These tools work effectively with 'tweens and teens to quietly diffuse potential mishaps, provide students with the encouraging recognition they need, create a positive classroom environment, and save your sanity! These are also great strategies to use to differentiate your classroom behavior management strategies in inclusive settings or in Special Education Classes.
