Behaviour Prompt Fans

Managing student behavior without constant verbal redirection can be challenging. These illustrated prompt fans offer teachers a quiet, visual solution. The 7-piece fan provides friendly visual cues to get children back on track in a non-disruptive way. Educators can hold up prompts like “Good Looking”, “Hand Up”, or “Stop” during instruction. A subtle glance conveys expectations and reminders to stay focused and behaved. Prompts for posture, listening, and participation keep students engaged in lessons. The “Well Done!” piece offers quick positive reinforcement. Rather than loud reprimands, these materials allow subtle behavior corrections. Students, especially visual learners, appreciate the low-key signals. Consistent cues aid self-regulation skills. Durable for repeated use, teachers can integrate these fans seamlessly into classroom management. Silent redirections with a simple visual aid maintain a calm, productive learning environment. Children quickly grasp the meaning behind each illustrated piece. Integrate these into your toolkit for harmonious lessons with fewer disruptions. Establish clear expectations and redirect behaviors while keeping valuable teaching momentum. The fan has 7 pieces which include the prompts: - Good looking - Good listening - Good sitting - Hand up - Well done! - Time out - Stop The wonderful clipart images are courtesy of Kari Bolt Clipart

Additionally, there are two links included in the pdf: one which opens a digital version of the notes, and another that opens a slide show version, optimized for a projector or interactive board.

Students will then answer the question card on their desk and record their answer on their answer sheet, making sure to answer the correct number. Set a time limit (such as 2 minutes) for students to answer each question, and then say "Scoot". When you say "Scoot", students will quickly stand up, leave their card at their desk, and move to the next desk with the next number, where they will start working immediately on the next question. Once all students have completed the task cards, you can check the answers as a group, providing feedback and corrections as needed. This format encourages students to work at their own pace, while also promoting collaboration and teamwork as they move around the classroom and work with their peers. In addition to the Scoot game, there are other ways to use task cards in the classroom.

Alternatively, you could copy the cards onto colored card stock, laminate them, and use them year after year, making them a valuable and versatile addition to your classroom resources. Overall, this Scoot game is a great way to make algebra practice more engaging and enjoyable for students, while also promoting critical thinking skills and collaborative learning.

The students traded their faces like Pokemon cards. This is a great template for a behavior incentive or even teaching students about money." "I knew I wanted to do class economy this year. We started the year just using money that closely resembled monopoly money. The farther into the year the more I saw a gap in my students understanding of REAL MONEY. So I switched to these and not only do they love that my face is on them, but they are also starting to grasp the concept of the values and making change. They are learning and they dont even know it!"
