I don't do it and don't care for the card thing but if you must use it start everyone at a positive level and have kids work toward the highest level. This promotes positive behavior and does not cause any emotional damage on the students. I like this better than pulling cards or something similar. Everyone is a winner.... and it keeps kids working to meet higher goals. Let kids be rewarded for the good behavior and don't focus your energy on their poor choices. Kids learn quickly that your really want to catch them being good. The new push in positive school climates is to work backward on that chart thing….
