Class Dojo

ClassDojo is a FREE, effective, and excellent tool that I would like to share with you today.  For the past two years, I have used this resource in my classroom.  This app allows teachers to monitor student behavior in a fun and compelling manner.

ClassDojo is great for the following reasons:

• Parent Contact: Sends out a notice to parents every Friday.
• Parent Instant Messenger: You can send a message to all parents, or individually, instantly! :)
• Positive and negative feedback to students and parents. 
• Students keep track of  their behavior with their personal page, and they create a monster avatar!
• Student of Month: In my classroom, the student with the most points and without any negatives becomes Student of the Month. I give them a certificate and a prize. If there was a tie between several students, the class voted.  
• You can customize positive and negative feedback categories.

I have come across so many teachers and administrators who do not know about this FREE program,  so I wanted to try to start spreading the word because it works!

If you decide to try ClassDojo, I would love for you to share how it worked for your class. 

If you already use ClassDojo, please feel free to share your experiences.
