Behavior Color Chart From Kelli Larkin, a third grade teacher at Vienna Elementary School in Vienna, Georgia: "I have a laminated piece of colored poster board with each student's name on it in the front of the room where everyone can see it. I use green, yellow, red and black clothespins to keep track of behavior. All students start each day on green for good behavior/no trouble. If someone gets into trouble I simply ask him or her to change their color. (After green comes yellow, then red and then black.) Each color has a separate consequence for example; yellow means five minutes from recess. I send home a behavior report each week that tells the parents what color the student had each day and the behavior that caused the color change. My students really try to keep their color on green the entire week!"
