Think Sheets

Sometimes it's necessary for students to take a break before behavior escalates, or to process their actions after an incident.  Check out these different "think sheets" to use for both situations.  The only caution is NOT to use them when the student is escalated.  After completed, thank them, and welcome the student back to class for a fresh start.   

Visual Think Sheet:  (Non-Readers)  Uses icons with words

Try Again Ticket: (Elementary) Fits perfectly with PBIS schools/classrooms using the terms, Respectful, Responsible, and Safe.

Terrific Ticket:  (Elementary)  Works with the Try Again Ticket as a way to reinforce the behaviors you want to see. 

Incident Report: (Elementary, Primary) 

Incident Report: (Elementary, Primary) this form is like the one above, with the addition of the child marking what rule they followed as well as what rule they broke.

Behavior Reflection: (Elementary)

Think Sheet 1:  (Upper Elementary-Middle School) 

Think Sheet 2:  (Upper Elementary-Middle School) 

Think Sheet 3:  (Upper Elementary-Middle School)
 
Think Sheet- Are You In Control?:  (Upper Elementary-High School)

Break/Calm Down Sheet:  (Upper Elementary-High School)

Think Sheet Checklist:  (Upper Elementary-High School)  This form is quick to fill out, and is great for students who have difficulty writing.  It's geared toward students who have difficulty managing their anger.  It will require some quick pre-teaching skills of what some of the terms mean.  Teach them that the answer to the question, "Who is responsible for my anger", will always be "ME". This gets at the heart of the students owning their feelings and learning that all feelings are okay, it's our actions that may not be okay.
