ClassDojo
I use ClassDoJo in class on a daily basis to monitor behavior.  All of the criteria that I watch throughout the day are based off of our Social Standards.  As a parent, you will be able to have your own log in to see how your student is doing, and each student have their own log in so that they can check in and monitor their own progress.

Students will have the opportunity to earn tickets for completing their homework on time. They will have the opportunity to turn in their tickets each Friday for certain rewards.  

Star Student 
Each week there will be a new star student in our classroom.  See the attachment for more info!
