• Be specific about which behaviors you are focusing on. It is best to focus on only 2 or 3 behaviors at a time. For some students, working on 1 behavior at a time may be most appropriate.

• State the behaviors in a way that tells your student what you want them to do. For example, use appropriate language, raise their hand to speak, etc.

• Explain to your student how the log works and explain the specific behavior expectations that you are targeting. Explain that you will be sending this home for a parent/guardian signature each day and that they are expected to return it to you daily.

• Communicate with parent/guardian about the log so that they know to sign and return the log.

• Communicate with any other team members who will be documenting behaviors on the log, such as other teachers.

• Keep enough copies of the charts on hand in an accessible area.

• It can help to keep the logs in a folder.

• Consider stapling the logs together at the end of each week and keeping them in your student’s file.

• The charts can come in handy at Parent Teacher Conferences, IEP meetings, etc.
