Classroom Clip Chart
Student choices are tracked on a Clip Chart. All students begin the day on green in middle of the chart. Clothespins are moved up or down depending on choices. Clips that are moved down may be moved back up if the teacher sees the student making improved choices. In addition, once a clip is moved up, it may be moved down. All clothespins are moved back to green at the end of the day. Here is an explanation of each level of our Clip Chart:
