Classroom Management - Stay on your chair and BEHAVE!
Do you have a child who constantly gets out of their chair and disrupts the class?
If so, this simple but effective REWARDS AND SANCTIONS approach might help.
.
Instructions:
Stick the 4 cards together (back to back) and laminate (green, yellow, orange and red).
Hole punch the top left corner (of the 4 cards) and tie together with a ribbon or string.
Then explain the ‘Flip A Card’ system with the child:
Each day the child will begin with a green card. ‘GREEN IS GREAT!’
If the child is disruptive and gets out of their chair when they are not meant to, ask them to flip a card (to yellow). If they refuse, you must to do it yourself and take control of the cards. You must display the cards too (but keep them out of reach of the child particularly if they want to throw them away). The child must always know what colour card they are on.
The child (or teacher) may only flip 1 card at a time!
If the child gets to RED, they must receive a TIME OUT or ALTERNATIVE SANCTION (in line with school policy). After the TIME OUT, they return to class on an ORANGE CARD - DON’T BE TEMPTED TO PUT THEM BACK ON GREEN!
A child can flip a card FORWARDS OR BACKWARDS depending on their behaviour. The child’s aim is to STAY ON GREEN or GET BACK TO GREEN if they have flipped a card.
If the child is still on a GREEN CARD at the end of the day, REWARD THE WHOLE CLASS (e.g. a house point or game). It is important to reward all of the children so that they want to help the child succeed. It must be a team effort.

Good luck and I hope this works for you.
