  Case: Keep your hands, feet, and objects to yourself!
Everyday, I am constantly reinforcing this rule to my 1st grade students; KEEP YOUR HANDS, FEET, AND OBJECTS TO YOURSELF. Lately more students are putting their hands on one another be it pushing and shoving in line or hitting someone on the carpet. I have a clip system in which the students would have to move their clips down (with the chance to move back up), as well as class dojo in which the students will loose points or have their points erased all together. These tools seem to not be working as much as I would like them to. What do you all suggest?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Model to the students what you mean by "keeping your hands, feet and objects to yourself." To adults, it seems simple, but the first graders might need you to model good behavior to them. Class Dojo is great for positive reinforcement. Make sure the students are able to see when you give a student a positive Dojo and explain to the class the reason for giving the positive Dojo.

Comments: If I were in this situation, I would do this because sometimes students do not have a positive role model at home and need the teacher to demonstrate what it means to be one.
