Description

Restorative practices are an effective way to improve class and school culture, decrease negative behaviors, and develop successful citizens of the school and world. These tools help you implement the practices in a developmentally appropriate way for elementary students!
 
Restorative circles are one important component of restorative practices. In circles, power and responsibility are shared and equal among all members. The restorative circle prompts in this resource help develop the social-emotional skills needed for restorative practices to take hold and be effective in your classroom and school.
 
Restorative Practices or Restorative Justice behavior reflection sheets are for students to use when they have broken a rule/failed to meet a school expectation. It is particularly powerful when someone else was harmed due to their actions. It’s perfect when the teacher/administrator/dean doesn’t have time in the moment to have a discussion with the student but can talk through the sheet with them later. They are also great for students who have trouble thinking when they’re in the ‘hot seat’ and do better processing alone with a think sheet first.
 
This resource includes:
  • Choices/Behavior Think Sheet in three differentiated options: visual, selected response, and fill-in-the blank
  • Two example completed sheets for each type
  • Slideshow for teaching students how to use the think sheets
  • Scaffolding instructions to help students complete the forms independently

    • Taking Responsibility For My Own Actions
