Learning the Ropes

I REALLY like the If-Then Chart from Doorposts, but you know me - I have to bling things up a bit . . .


Something new I'm trying this year is my WOE cards. This is a friendly warning to my Outlaws that they are trotting down the wrong path & if they don't stop I'm going to have to pull the reigns in. *These are laminated as well, so if I'd like I can write a little note on the back. I did this to take the emotion out of it. I will just simply leave a little WOE card in their pocket.
Big Daddy's schedule is super nice because he only has to work 2 days in a row (plus every other Fri, Sat, Sun); however, when he is gone at work he is gone ALL day - at least 14 hours. WOW! Tell me about it. One of the things I hate to do is bombard him with the days issues that he needs to address with our Outlaws as he is walking in the door. So, I decided to make a "Gotta Tell Dad" slip. Check it out:


There it is - my plan for discipline: Learnin' the Ropes Chart, W.O.E cards, & Gotta Tell Dad slips. Plus remember the "Hang your hat" poster. I'd love to hear what creative ways you are using to handle discipline while homeschooling.
