Well, probably not. So, what\u2019s the problem here? Before you start blaming yourself for constantly procrastinating and postponing your goals, think about your initial plan. Ask yourself, <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">were my goals realistic? Is it possible to actually change almost all aspects of my life right away? <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Definitely not! To effectively stick to a goal, it\u2019s important to be realistic and reasonable. If you had started with only one goal for the year, you would have probably managed to achieve it. The same thing applies to students. Teachers always expect them to follow a list of behavior goals for students in the classroom all at once. Most of the time, this will result in the reverse effect.<span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"> Setting <\/span><\/span>behavior goals for students<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">\u00a0i<\/span>s a magical strategy that many teachers swear by for disciplining their students in the classroom.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_81 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-light-blue ez-toc-container-direction\">\r\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\r\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69d41ae531fa7\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69d41ae531fa7\"  aria-label=\"Toggle\" \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#What_is_a_student_behavior_plan\" >What is a student behavior plan?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#5_tips_for_struggling_teachers_%E2%80%93_how_do_you_write_a_behavioral_plan_for_students\" >5 tips for struggling teachers &#8211; how do you write a behavioral plan for students?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#Examples_of_negative_student_behavior\" >Examples of negative student behavior<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#Behavioral_goals_for_students_examples\" >Behavioral goals for students examples<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#Best_movies_about_the_importance_of_discipline_and_behavior\" >Best movies about the importance of discipline and behavior<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/behavior-goals-for-students\/#Steps_to_take_when_a_student_displays_an_inability_to_conform_to_your_behavior_plan\" >Steps to take when a student displays an inability to conform to your behavior plan<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\r\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_student_behavior_plan\"><\/span><b>What is a student behavior plan?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">The essence of behavior goals for students is allowing them to be responsible for their own behavior by recording their results every day.

If the headteacher expressed his\/her concern over your class\u2019s behavioral issues, perhaps you can specifically ask him\/her for more details. This could put you at the beginning of the road to writing a plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Another great idea would be to ask a fellow teacher to attend a few lessons and tell you his\/her notes about the class behavior. Sometimes, our own judgments are biased or unclear. So, having a new eye to oversee your class might be a good option.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">After you have managed to write down the main problems that your class is facing, the next step would be to write down an actual plan. Here are five tips to get you started.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Related article:<\/strong> Make A Change!

Start by telling them that the class has a collective behavioral issue that needs to be resolved. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Whatever the age group you are dealing with, rest assured that they will certainly listen to what you have to say.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">When you explain that their behavioral problem is causing issues for the school and that it will affect their school performance, they will take the matter seriously. If you manage to balance between a firm and calm tone, you\u2019ll be surprised how this firmness also affects them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">An excellent way to deliver your message indirectly is to show them a video or movie scene of a disrespectful\/noisy class. Ask them follow-up questions after the video to get their reactions and attitudes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How can you describe this class using three adjectives?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why did you choose these particular adjectives?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do you think the teacher feels?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How do you think the teacher should react?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What kind of punishment do you think is suitable for this class\u2019s behavior?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>2) Prepare your tools to create behavioral goals for students<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">The right tools will certainly be quite helpful for the implementation of this plan. The first option is to prepare a bulletin board to be hung in the class where everyone can see it. Each day\/week, place a big paper that includes your selected behavior goal for the entire class.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">On the side, place a checklist with all the students&#8217; names and a tick box beside each name. After each class, let each student tick beside their name whether they followed the day\u2019s behavior plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Another option is to simply prepare sticky notes with the behavioral goal and stick them on each student\u2019s desk. You can add different goals for different students if each one of them has a different behavioral issue. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">One last option is to write each student\u2019s behavioral goal on their binders\/files so it accompanies them everywhere, even at home.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>3) Start a reward system<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">All teachers know that students thrive on motivation! An excellent way to provide a good incentive for students to behave better is to implement a reward system. Start by explaining that there will be a reward for students who follow their daily or weekly behavioral goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Some teachers like to give stickers to students in their early years. You can also create a sticker chart, hang it in the classroom, and give out gifts when students reach 5 stickers, for example. For older students, teachers like to give them more material gifts like comic books, stationery, souvenirs, or even candy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Other teachers prefer the promise of bonus grades for students who follow their behavioral plan. Perhaps you can start a\u00a0 \u201creward coupons\u201d system to even motivate the students more.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>4) Let students choose their own behavior goals\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">A great way to instill responsibility and self-discipline in your students is to let them be in charge of their own behavior management. This will also show you how each student thinks of himself\/herself when it comes to poor class manners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Teachers who have tried implementing this method report that almost 99% of the time, each student knows what they need to work on in class. This way, after each class, each student will be held accountable for his\/her attitude.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">You will also be able to reason with the student better if he\/she is having serious behavioral problems that require extra attention. When the student is self-aware of his\/her problem, this saves you so much time and effort.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>5) Know your students\u2019 impressions each day\/week\/quarter<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is essential to garner their feedback on a daily or weekly basis. You can sit with each student, and let them talk about what <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">they <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">think their behavior was like the previous week and how they feel they did on their behavior plan.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-size: 14pt;\">Afterward, give them your own feedback, the change in behavior that you noticed &#8211; or the lack thereof. This one-to-one talk will be great for building a bond with each student and it will motivate them to do their best efforts to avoid letting themselves down or letting you down by the end of the week.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Teacher\u2019s Full Guide To <\/span><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/skolera.com\/en\/blog\/student-behavior-tracking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Student Behavior Tracking<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Examples_of_negative_student_behavior\"><\/span><b>Examples of negative student behavior<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;
