Class Dojo FREEBIE

Happy Monday, everyone!

It's the fourth week of school for me and I'm still feeling drained after a Monday.  I know that's typical for every Monday.  I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the DRA tunnel.  Phew!  If your district uses the DRA you know what I'm feeling.  I have two classes this year totaling 35 students.  That's a lot of DRAs, people!  I have finished up one class and am nearing the end with the other.  As exhausting as administering this many DRAs is, I love doing it because I get to know my readers so well at the beginning of the year.

Wow... squirrel moment!  I did NOT start this blog post to talk about DRAs. haha.  I did want to tell you about my Class Dojo Brag Tags! Half of my homeroom glass has entered the 50 point club.  WOOHOO!  Today I welcomed my first member of the 100 point club!  We're on fire, y'all!  My kids are loving earning their Class Dojo Brag Tags and joining a point club.  My friends who haven't entered a club yet are soooooo close and are extremely motivated to join their friends.  My brag tags, which you can find in my TpT store for FREE, come in increments of 50 points all the way up to 1,000!  I was so delighted to see this product has been downloaded over 300 times. :) Makes my heart smile thinking students in classrooms everywhere are earning Dojo brag tags.

However, after receiving a request for an editable template, it occurred to me that not everyone uses Class Dojo the same way.  Hello!!!! Duh!  So, by request, I have created an EDITABLE Class Dojo Brag Tags product so you can just type in the point values that best suit your needs.

Enjoy, y'all!  Get your Dojo on!

New Product Alert: Monthly Reading Log Brag Tags

Do you use brag tags in your classroom?  If not, YOU SHOULD!  First, let's go over some FAQs.

What are brag tags?
Brag tags are small, printable cards for your students to earn.  They collect them and add them to a keychain, necklace, or place of your choice.

Why brag tags?
Kids love showing off something they have earned.  The more brag tags they collect, the more pride they will have of their set.  What's better than students taking ownership of their work and accomplishments?  I don't know.  You tell me!

Why do teachers love brag tags?
Brag tags are great incentives for accomplishing academic and behavioral goals.  They are also very easy to manage and store.  I am about to order myself one of these babies to easily store all of my brag tags.

This product includes 12 months worth of brag tags for monthly reading log completion.  The best part?  It's FREE!
Click me to go directly to the product page in my store for purchase!

In my classroom, I start each month by handing out a new reading log which is part of their nightly homework.  Students are to read by themselves or with a parent daily for at least 20 minutes.  Parents initial or sign off each day to verify completion.  At the end of the month I collect reading logs and award each child with a Book It! coupon for a personal pan pizza from Pizza Hut.  Next year I will also be passing out brag tags for students to add to their chain to show off!  

Your students will LOVE collecting their monthly reading log brag tag each month.  Just print on cardstock, laminate (if you wish), hole punch in the top center, and add to a keychain or necklace.  

If you decide to download this product, please leave me some feedback in my store!  I would LOVE to know what you think.  Better yet... take a photo of it in use and make sure to tag me in it!
