Students have the opportunity to start their own portfolios through Class Dojo!
Here students can post videos, responses, pictures, uploads etc....
I can share questions with them and assign activities for them to complete.
The only ones who will see their portfolio is you, your child, and of course, me! I also will accept the posts they submit.
Since your child is under 13, I will need parental consent. This will all remain private just like using a regular Class Dojo account.
I have been using Class Dojo for several years in my classroom. My parents over the years have loved it because it is an excellent way to communicate with one another. Here you can send me a simple message (a lot like a text). I can answer in real time or you can ask me a question after the day is over. I still reach out via email and phone calls, but this makes communication even easier!
I also use this as an additional classroom management tool. Students have their own monster avatar and are able to earn points. If someone makes poor choices, they will not earn the positive point. They always have chances to earn positive points.
When students earn points for behavior they can earn a certain amount to pick from my monthly prize box or choose a water bottle sticker to decorate their stuff .
Students will earn consequences for repeated misbehavior. I use Classdojo with my three strike policy. I aim for logical consequences. If your child makes a mess, they clean it up. If they run or talk in the halls they try again or go to the end. However, they also lose free time or get silent lunch if the behavior does not change.
All you have to do is download the app on your phone or sign up online and wait for my invite!
