I love ClassDoJo a whole lot. My students totally love it. I’ve been using it for 3 years strong now and don’t plan on stopping anytime soon. If you don’t know, ClassDoJo is a free website and app that motivates positive student behavior with these adorable little monsters.

Every week they earn a QR code behavior coupon if they have 93% or higher. (We’re kind of strict, but students rarely earn negatives. I’m very blessed.) Also, the student with the highest number of points each week is dubbed “Cougar of the Week” and has their picture placed on my wall and our class website (This pic was taken before school started, but students’ photos are placed on a star.).

 And this year, my partner teacher and I have added a new goal for our students – reaching the 100 Points Club. This is such an easy additional motivator to add if you are already using ClassDoJo. We do not erase students points from week to week. We let them keep rolling and once they earn 100, they join the 100 points club.

How does it work?

First they get to choose their own printed monster, write their name on it, and place it on our 100 Point Club display. For every 100 points they earn, they will get to add a new monster for everyone to see. If you don’t know, ClassDoJo has the most adorable monster clip art for you to download and insert into your ClassDoJo materials. Just find the section that says ClassDoJo Image Pack.

Then, they also get to choose a prize that parents have donated to our classroom.

 
I wish I could give you my poster for our display, but I think it may be against ClassDoJo’s copyright. You can download my freebie frame template and create your own with ClassDoJo’s clip art.

And there are a ton of other free resources, too, at this page at ClassDoJo’s website.

UPDATE: What if you want to see weekly/daily DoJo points, too, and not just a yearly accumulation of points?

Bex Mawn of Reading and Writing Redhead asked about what to do if you still want to see daily or weekly sums of DoJo points. I used to just erase all my “bubbles” every week since we also check weekly points. However, that’s not necessary.

While on the classroom monster page, click Reports.

Then change the drop-down box by students to Highest Combined or Most Positives and the Data Range: box to Last Week, Today, or there’s even a Custom Range option at the bottom.

That way you can check daily or weekly points while still keeping a running tally of overall points for your 100 Points Club.

Got any other easy motivators with ClassDoJo that I can add to my routine? My students will thank you for it!
