Give a student behavior points

Give a positive or negative point on a cell of the attendance grid: right-click, long-press or plus. For teachers: behavior, reward, points.

Reward a student for good work, or note a problem in class, with a point. The point belongs to the lesson and is saved together with attendance.

Before you start

  • Sign in as “Teacher”. Your center must use behavior points: the founder's setting “Who studies here” must be “Kids” or “Teens”, not “Adults”.
  • The lesson must have started, and the student must be present or late.

Steps

  1. Open “Attendance” and find the lesson's column. Press the student's cell until it shows present or late.
  2. Open the points window. Right-click the cell. On a phone, press and hold it. With the keyboard, focus the cell and press plus. On a lesson's roll call, press the plus or minus beside the student's name.
  3. Choose the reason on the “Positive” or “Negative” tab. It joins the list “To save”; press it there to remove it. You can add several points.
  4. If the reason is not in the list, set the points under “Custom points”, type a name and press “Give”. A note is optional.
  5. Close the window. The cell shows the points with a dot until you save.
  6. Press “Save”. Attendance and points are saved together.

Result

The cell shows the day's points as a star with a number. The student and the parents get a notification.

If something looks different

  • Nothing opens on a right-click: the student is not marked present or late, or the lesson has not started or is cancelled.
  • There is no “Behavior” page and the cells show no points: the center is set to “Adults”.
  • A saved point has no button to remove it. Check the list “To save” before you press “Save”.
