This is a great tool for providing something between “Don’t do that” and “You need to leave”. 

Bathroom and Nurse visits are also recorded on the card.

Behaviors that do not lead to success are recorded by
using a punch out system that fits into a name badge. 

There are consequences for different numbers of STARS each marking period. I get my badges on eBay:

This is a great tool for providing something between “Don’t do that” and “You need to leave”.

The first day of class, I have them filled out and on the kid's seats.  I usually have 20% to re do as some kids go by other names.  There is provisions for the FIRST and LAST name, ID number and Sequence number.  They hold the paper sideways and I snap a picture for a seating chart that now has name and picture on it. 

Hang the nametags on the wall so that when someone is absent, their nametag is handed to the teacher or sub for attendance.  A quick scan tells who is here today.

Subs love the seating chart with names and pictures.
