Clothes Pins for Clip Chart

Okay, I am obsessed!  I found these tiny little bee stickers while placing an Oriental Trading order and figured I'd find a use for them.  There literally were a gazillion in one package.  First order of business was to add one to the clip chart clothes pins.  I stuck them on and then Mod Podged over them for extra holding power.  The photo isn't great but you get the idea.

After a couple layers of Mod Podge dries I will add numbers.

Hive of Fame

Christina Bainbridge has her kiddos put a gem on their clothes pin each time the get to the top of the clip chart.  Then once they get five gems on their clip it is "retired" to the wall of fame and they get a new clip.  I love this idea!  So, in keeping with my theme, I created the "Hive of Fame" that the clips will be moved to.  Thanks Christina for the idea!

Adorable Bee Font

I found this adorable bee font and naturally had to redo my clip chart sayings.  Hope the kids can read it otherwise I'll be the only one enjoying it!

More Clip Chart

Can you believe that I want my clip chart to go along with my bee theme?  I made header to go at the top.  You'll notice the bottom saying..."What level will you choose to "bee" on today?"  We use Marvin Marshall's levels of behavior at our school.  They fit in nicely with the clip chart levels I think.  My clip chart levels refer back to Marshall's levels of behavior.  I will  mount each level on color scrap booking paper and hang under the header.

Clip Chart Outstanding Stickers

Last year when kids made it to the top of the clip chart they would get to take home a happy note.  However, I was constantly finding them dropped on the ground or having kids run back into the building to get their forgotten note.  In an effort the solve that problem I decided to create stickers using labels that the kids could just stick on their shirt or forehead (as some of them like to do!)  Mine have a bee theme, but you could create yours anyway you like.

Clip Chart Calendar

Simply 2nd Resources had a post about her clip chart calendar to inform parents about the color the kiddos ended up on at the end of the day.  I did something similar last year.

At the end of each day the kids would quickly color to show what their ending color was on the clip chart.  Once the procedure was established it took very little time.  The calendar went home on Fridays for parents to look over, sign, and comment on.  Each month we'd add the new calendar but keep the previous.  It was great to be able to look back over time and comment on improvements, etc.  I even had kids counting the number of certain colors they had and setting goals for the next week/month.  Loved it!
