Friday Folder with Behavior Chart/Classroom Work Habits
This is a great tool to use when trying to organize and send home all classwork/homework. I collect all homework each day. It got to be too much trying to correct it and then send home the same day. On Fridays students pass out all the homework from the week and classwork. Students bring folders home on Friday and return them back on Monday without any papers, only tests. I keep the tests and put them into portfolios for conferences or any other academic concerns I may have. There is a behavio

This product contains three levels of discussion prompts for students to use in their daily work. My school uses them in the K-2 setting, 3-5 setting, and the 6-8 setting.
