The Dojo App is Here! Yay!

I can't believe it! I'm so excited! I love my {ClassDojo} and now, I can use the App on my phone. If you don't know what {ClassDojo} is, it is a behavior management program on the computer. It makes the coolest reports and I send an email to the parents every Friday. I could even send an individual report each day. This would be handy when you have a child with some behavior issues. 

I was using my phone to record points, but I could only reward one child at a time, so it got a little frustrating. Now, I can choose a group of kids or even my whole class to reward (or ding. . . hehehe). You should see my kids walk down the hall! If they see me look at my phone, they know they might be getting a point!

If you aren't familiar with {ClassDojo}, you can check out my {previous post} that walks you through getting it set up or click {here} to head on over and get it set up for yourself! Hope you are having a wonderful week! Tomorrow is Wednesday!

Dojo Update-Catching Like Wildfire at College Wood!

UPDATES recently made to Class Dojo has made it better than ever! Some of the pics below have been changed, but the program is super easy to use, and I know you'll just love it!

I have to say that Class DOJO is the best thing since sliced bread! I've never been the best at classroom management . . . I have tried so many different behavior systems it isn't even funny! 

Class Dojo is so simple to use . . . I even have a bunch of teachers at my school using it now! I think we are even going to try to set something up school-wide for next year. Here's what you need to do to get your class up and running! 

1. Head on over to Class Dojo & click the 'Try it right now' button.


2. Register yourself . . . You only need your name & email!


3. Voila! You are signed up! You can take the tour if you want, but  
     if you want the short version . . . here you go!


4. Click the green 'plus' sign to add your class. Choose your grade 
    level and name your class. I have a different class set up for my 
    homeroom and for my math class.


5. Enter your student names then click 'add these students'.


6. Click on the 'Behaviors' tab to add any behaviors you would like 
    to add. You can add positive and negative behaviors. I add a new 
    behavior every time something new comes up! (The ones listed 
    here are the ones that you start out with.) After you finish, just 
    click the 'finished' button!


7. Click 'start class' for the class that you want to start up.


8. If you want to adjust the avatars, sounds, visual reminders, etc. 
    just click the 'class settings' tool.


9. You are ready to reward your little cuties for all the wonderful 
    work they do in a day! You can also take away points when 
    needed. You can choose more than one child at a time too! Just 
    click the names you want to reward.


10. Then just click the behavior!


11. The screen keeps track of the total number of points that have 
      been accumulated. I keep mine set so it keeps a running total. I 
      don't really want everyone to see the negatives.


12. When you are done for the day, just click the 'End Class' button 
       and you will get an overall class report.


13. You can click on one child's name to see his/her individual 
       report.


14. The individual report also breaks down the points. You can 
      also add comments. 


15. At the end of each week, I set the dates to include the whole week, and then send the reports to the parents through email. You can also create PDFs that you can save or print. 

You just have to check this program out . . . I'm telling you . . . You won't be sorry! One of my good buddies who really doesn't like technology, set this up . . . ALL BY HERSELF! She will even tell you . . . "If I can do it . . . Anyone can do it!"

DO THE DOJO!
