New and Improved Blurt Chart!



I had to redo my old Blurt Chart because my class size has grown from 22 to 25! AHH!  Anyways, I made this super cute polka dot Blurt Chart so I thought I would share it!
 
New Blurt Chart:
 
 
I use Velcro dots to make the stars easily go on and off of the chart.
 
 
 Old Blurt Chart:
 
 
 
 
Here is how the Blurt Chart Behavior Management System works in my classroom:

The B.L.U.R.T system discourages students from interrupting the teacher from teaching or interrupting other students from learning.  Each day the students start with three stars next to their number on the chart.  Anytime a student Blurts out, makes a Loud noise, interrUpts the teacher from teaching, a student is out of theiR seat talking to others, or Talking too loud they will lose a star.  If a student loses all three stars they will receive a consequence.

Here is an inside look of one of my binders.

Each of my binders have my worksheets, activities, etc. in a clear page protector and placed inside each unit binder. 


By keeping my files in the binders it makes looking for things so much faster and easier!  It is also easy to store - you don’t have to worry about all the file cabinet space.  When I transformed my files into binders I took it slow so I wouldn’t get overwhelmed.  I just took the unit I was working on that week and placed my files into the binder.  It was not overwhelming and it didn’t take much time since I took it a week and a unit at a time.

Enjoy!
