Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down! Jar Printable

Recently a reader requested a printable for this jar. {Original post here} I hadn’t saved it, but decided it was time to update mine anyway, so I’m making behaviors examples for the Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down! Jar Printable available to my readers. Some of the positive/negative behaviors listed are more specific to my group, but tried to make most of them general, so they could be used in any early childhood group. There’s also a blank page to create your own. If you have suggestions, let me know! I will add them. Thanks for the email {and your patience} Sarah @ Miss A’s Kindergarten!

THUMBS UP! THUMBS DOWN! PRINTABLES

Use the Thumbs Up! Thumbs Down! Jar Printable to create scenarios to introduce to the children. They can help determine if the scenario is a “thumbs up” or a “thumbs down”. They get to participate and decide if the behavior is a good choice. It helps reinforce your expectations and build community. In mixed age groups, you will notice the older ones will remind the younger ones (or whomever needs reminding) when they see a “thumbs down” behavior happening. It is an effective way to manage your group and get a little help too!

I'm sorry this has been your experience. The file is downloadable, many people have used it. I tried replying to your email but it was returned. I'm sorry I can not help you more, I'm unsure what you need. It's a PDF file and then you should be able to just print it after you save it to your computer. Let me know if I can help you with this. (I see how that your email address has an extra letter - may that's why it didn't go through to you).
