Jack's been having a tough time with school recently (as well as home). So we had to go meet with the teacher last Monday to find out what's been going on and see what we can do to improve his behavior. The teacher suggested a Smiley Chart where he gets a Happy face, Middle face or Sad face for different things throughout the day. Ashley had the same thing in First grade - so we were ok with it. The first 2 days weren't too great, but then by Wednesday things started to pick up. We also got back on routine at home which has helped him tremendously as well! Wednesday night during his bath I made a deal with him if he could get one day with all Happy Smiley faces we would go to the Yellow Store (Dollar General) and buy him his fishing pole. Thursday he almost made it but then on Friday WOW he got them all! And let me tell you - that little boy was SO proud of himself!! What a difference a Smiley Chart can make (and being back on routine at home too)!
