The smiley chart

Zoe has some behavioral issues.  I could go into details but words don't really do it justice.  It's just something you have to experience to understand.  So anyway, I decided to try a behavior chart.  We laminated it and use a dry erase marker to make smiley faces on the flowers when she does something good and erase a smiley when she does something she's not supposed to.  The smileys don't necessarily have to correspond with the behavior under it.  Then if she ends the day with 5 or more smileys, she gets to pick a prize from the prize bag.  Sometimes she earns her prize and some days she doesn't.
