Update, 1/13/2022: After the flurry social media accusations and responses detailed in our story below, Magnolia Network has announced that it will air Home Work again. "Our commitment now is to provide appropriate resolutions," Magnolia's president Allison Page said in a statement late Thursday. Original Story, 1/11/2022:

Home renovation shows are feel-good television, chronicling inspirational transformations many homeowners can only dream of. But are some of them too good to be true? Over the past week, several families featured on the new show Home Work— hosted by fixer-uppers Andy and Candis Meredith,as part of the starting lineup at Chip and Joanna Gaines 's new Magnolia Network —have stepped forward with deeply concerning allegations leveled at the show's producers. They report fraudulent promises, financial disarray, and unsafe (even illegal) labor conditions at their own home renovations, which were all filmed for the show.

On Thursday January 6, in response, Magnolia Network officially pulled Home Work from all its platforms.

So What Happened?

Three homeowners—Aubry Bennion, Teisha Hawley, and Vienna Goates—spoke out in a series of damning Instagram posts , condemning Andy and Candis for over-promising and under-delivering. The allegations range from the couple blowing budgets by tens of thousands of dollars (and then demanding additional funds to finish the work), to inexcusible lapses in work and communication, to hiring unlicensed contractors who created unsafe conditions.

"After our meeting and finding out about the blown budget we had multiple conversations via phone, text, and email," wrote Hawley. "We were told that we had to wire $10,000 immediately to have anything done."

For their part, the Merediths owned up to some shortcomings on the projects, including sometimes being “left with outstanding balances,” per their own Instagram post addressing the allegations on Saturday, “but we always pay, even if it takes some time for us to make arrangements.” In an exclusive interview with House Beautiful , Candis also confirmed that some of the timelines on the renovations in question were extended. “I'm only relaying what I'm being told by contractors about timeline. Unfortunately, I can't control that when I'm not the one swinging the hammer and running the wires, as much as I'd love to,” she says. “And I would love to budget more time for client projects in the future. If I ever do client projects again, that's absolutely something that I've learned.”

Another homeowner featured on the show, Jeana Quigley, voiced her support for the Merediths after the show was canceled, acknowledging that while her renovation did take longer than expected, she felt that “Candis truly wanted me to love that space,” per an Instagram story posted on Friday. “I’ve done other remodels in the past and have never had one go absolutely perfectly. Every project has issues,” she wrote.

What Went Wrong?

This is not the first time a home renovation show has presented a perfectly polished product only to have the veneer crack. In 2005, the Higgins family featured on ABC’s Extreme Makeover: Home Edition sued the network for “fraud, breach of contract and infliction of emotional distress,” per the Los Angeles Times , though a judge ultimately dismissed the case. Then in 2017, after starring on HGTV’s Love It or List It, Deena Murphy and Tim Sullivan sued the show’s network, the production company, and general contractor for “breach of contract, faulty workmanship, and unauthorized retention of funds,” per the Triad Business Journal . They settled out of court.

TV aside, no renovation goes off without a hitch. Home renovations often go over budget—a 2020 Houzz survey of nearly 90,000 homeowners reports that 31 percent of respondents went over budget during renovations in 2019. And timelines are often extended : “It is not only common but also a guarantee that issues will arise on major renovations,” says Kentucky-based interior designer Isabel Ladd . “Instead of thinking, 'I wonder what issues will arise on this project,' I shift my thinking to, 'I wonder what solutions I'll conjure up during this project.' You simply don't know what will happen when walls start coming down.”

Additionally, Andy and Candis assert that some of the claims made by their clients are unfounded. In their own Instagram statement, they wrote, “We adamantly deny that we have ever stolen money from these clients, we haven't defrauded ‘so many families’. We worked with licensed general contractors.” While Candis wouldn’t elaborate on specifics, she did tell House Beautiful, “I look forward to sharing more details if and when I can.”

One of the bigger issues plaguing the production of Home Work is that the Merediths seem to have taken on far more roles than is typical for reno show hosts (and even real-world designers). “[Candis] was truly operating as a one-man band,” Bennion tells House Beautiful . “She oversaw the design. She oversaw the construction. She was on-air talent. She was the project manager.” Both Andy and Candis served as executive producers on the show, while Candis also served as director and design producer—all while managing eight or nine client renovations during Home Work ’s several-month production period.

“The reason for that is I'm so passionate about creating a different kind of show,” says Candis. “I was asked to make the full show that I wanted to make, and I was really excited to do that. So that meant that I took on quite a bit of the roles because it truly was my show, was my vision.”

But she also says that she felt less burdened by managing the production of the show than she did by managing the actual renovations. Prior to Home Work , she and her husband didn’t focus on client-driven work—their previous show, 2015’s Old Home Love on HGTV, saw the couple restore old houses with no clients involved. That lack of experience could explain, in part, why the Merediths’s expectations for the renovations didn’t square with reality.

“Oh my, do I feel for the Merediths. Reading about their situation has evoked so much empathy from me because I absolutely understand how things can go so wrong, especially when an extensive renovation is underway, supply chain issues are abundant, and surprises are beyond our control,” says Ladd.

Who's to Blame?

While it seems as if the Merediths did bite off more than they could chew, Bennion also questioned the role of the show’s production company in the mismanagement.

In unscripted television, networks typically outsource the day-to-day production of shows to third-party companies. For Home Work, Magnolia Network, which is owned by media giant Discovery, Inc., appears to have contracted a company called Linguine Pictures to produce the show, per the credits. Bennion confirmed that she was aware of Linguine and its owners and executive producers, Anne and Dan Fox, having met with Anne twice early on in the process. But as the renovation went on, she says, the Foxes were absent and the Merediths were the only point people.

Neither Magnolia Network nor Linguine Pictures has responded to a request for comment about the production of the show, though Magnolia previously issued House Beautiful the following statement by its president Allison Page regarding pulling Home Work from its programming: "Magnolia Network is aware that certain homeowners have expressed concerns about renovation projects undertaken by Candis and Andy Meredith. Within the last few days, we have learned additional information about the scope of these issues, and we have decided to remove ‘Home Work’ from the Magnolia Network line up pending a review of the claims that have been made."

Magnolia Network launched its streaming services on July 15, 2021, and debuted on cable on January 5, 2022. As a relative newcomer, the network is clearly experiencing some hiccups as it figures out its workflow, perhaps especially because it has taken a unique approach to finding hosts.

In an interview with Variety last week, Joanna Gaines explained Magnolia Network’s atypical casting process. “It’s...talent that we’re just completely enamored with as far as what they do, what they’re passionate about,” she said, noting that they don’t ask for people to send in casting tapes, which is a more standard industry practice. “It’s been a little harder, honestly, because it takes a lot of time on the phone and hours of talking them into even wanting to do television.”

It’s an innovative method that’s particularly on-brand for the Gaineses. According to an interview with HGTV , the Gaineses—who before going on TV ran Magnolia Homes, a home renovation company—were originally approached for a show when a production company noticed one of their renovations on a "high profile blog," though at some point they did film a casting tape, which was released last week with the cable launch of Magnolia Network. That ultimately led to the extremely popular five-season original run of Fixer Upper on HGTV.

Andy and Candis, notably, followed a similar path, having gotten their start in the design industry by renovating their own home before they were approached to take their skills to TV. But there are two key differences between Fixer Upper and Home Work : The Gaineses had years of client-focused experience under their tool belts before getting a TV show, and they did not serve as executive producers on their show, meaning they likely had more capacity to focus on the renovations rather than the logistics of television production.

“All we wanted to do was do something beautiful together and put it on a beautiful television show that people could enjoy it," Candis tells House Beautiful. " And I'm so sorry for any of the experiences that have been less than ideal for these clients. My heart hurts for them. It really does.”

Being overburdened during a renovation is not an excuse for a designer to lie or dodge the client. All parties involved in shows like these, from producers to hosts, hold responsibility for the actual work being performed on real clients' homes. Hopefully Magnolia Network's investigation into the claims surrounding Home Work will shed more light soon on what went wrong.

From Bennion’s perspective, Magnolia Network has already done right by pulling the show—but she is concerned that their official statement is a little too open-ended. “I want them to be accountable for what they've done, and I also want them to stop doing this to other people,” she says.

The Merediths, meanwhile, are hoping for a second chance. “We will always stand by that this has been difficult for these clients, and I don't want to take away from anything that anyone has said,” says Mrs. Meredith. “We all make mistakes. That doesn't make it okay, but we have to be given the chance to learn from our mistakes and do better.”

Hopefully, this will become a lesson for future renovation TV endeavors, under the Magnolia umbrella and beyond. In fact, that sentiment is part of Magnolia’s DNA; per the company’s manifesto , “We believe that failure needn’t be a negative thing; rather, we learn from our mistakes and fail smarter next time.”

Introduction

Stars are huge, glowing balls of gases. The closest star to Earth is the Sun . Most of the pinpricks of light that shine in the night sky are also stars. Countless more stars are too far from Earth to be seen without a telescope. Most stars are incredibly far away.

Stars are found in large groups called galaxies. A galaxy may contain millions or even hundreds of billions of stars, plus gas and dust.

Source of Energy

Nearly all stars are made up mostly of a gas called hydrogen. A star’s core is very hot. Great pressure squeezes the core, causing some of the hydrogen to change into a gas called helium. This process produces huge amounts of energy and makes the star shine.

Physical Features

Stars vary in size, temperature, brightness, and color. A star’s temperature, as well as its chemicals, makes it shine in a certain color. The bluer stars are usually hotter, while the redder stars are cooler. The Sun is somewhere in between. It gives off yellow light. The Sun is a fairly average star in terms of its brightness and size.

Life of a Star

A time line shows the stages in the life of a medium-sized star.

After shining for billions of years, a star uses up all its hydrogen. Small and medium stars slowly cool down and stop shining. This will happen to the Sun billions of years in the future.

Large stars end with a violent explosion called a supernova. After that the material gets crushed much smaller. It no longer shines. Huge stars may end up as objects called black holes . The crushed material is so heavy for its size that it develops a powerful inward pull. This pull, called gravity, is so strong that it sucks in anything that gets near the black hole.

Stars introduces students to the billions of suns throughout the universe. Students will discover that there are many different types of stars and that they all go through a cycle of life. They will also learn about constellations and how scientists classify these burning balls of helium and hydrogen.

This lesson’s “Options for Lesson” section is full of suggestions for additional ideas and activities. One option is to have students cut out big stars from construction paper or poster board that they can design and decorate for display in your classroom.

Description

Additional information, what our stars lesson plan includes.

Lesson Objectives and Overview: Stars explores the various types of stars in the universe and their lifecycle. Students will discover how scientists categorize and classify the universe’s suns and define certain smaller groups into constellations. They will also learn about some of the elements that comprise a star and how nuclear fission works. This lesson is for students in 3rd grade and 4th grade.

Classroom Procedure

Every lesson plan provides you with a classroom procedure page that outlines a step-by-step guide to follow. You do not have to follow the guide exactly. The guide helps you organize the lesson and details when to hand out worksheets. It also lists information in the yellow box that you might find useful. You will find the lesson objectives, state standards, and number of class sessions the lesson should take to complete in this area. In addition, it describes the supplies you will need as well as what and how you need to prepare beforehand.

Options for Lesson

You will find quite a few suggestions in the “Options for Lesson” section of the classroom procedure page that you could incorporate into the lesson plan. Some of these relate specifically to the activity. Students could work by themselves or in small groups rather than with a partner. Instead of writing the stories down, students could perform a mini-play for the class. Another optional addition to the lesson is to plan a field trip to a planetarium, or invite a local astronomer or astronomy expert to speak to the class and answer questions. Students could create a picture book that displays the lifecycle of stars. For the lesson opening, prepare some glow-in-the-dark stars inside a box or other location. One more idea is to have students cut out a big star to design and decorate for display in the classroom.

Teacher Notes

The teacher notes page provides an extra paragraph of information to help guide the lesson and remind you what to focus on. It suggests you teach this lesson around the same time as others about space, the sun, galaxies, and so on. The blank lines on this page are available for you to write out thoughts and ideas you have as you prepare the lesson.

STARS LESSON PLAN CONTENT PAGES

Big yellow star.

The Stars lesson plan contains three pages of content. The lesson begins by describing the sun. Every day, the “most popular star” in the universe appears in the eastern part of the sky as it starts to rise. The sun is one of about 6,000 visible stars, but it is the closest one to Earth. Clouds cannot fully block the sun’s intense brightness and energy.

While the sun seems fairly big in the sky, it is actually 93,000,000 miles away from Earth, and is much larger than it appears. That distance may seem very far, but it really isn’t when compared to the billions of other stars in the universe. In fact, the next closest star to Earth is 25,300,000,000,000 miles—or 25 trillion, 300 billion miles—away from our planet! Because the sun is so close to Earth, and because it’s part of our solar system, scientists study it the most out of all the stars. They believe the sun is 4.5 billion years old.

Students will learn that astronomers are the scientists who specialize in studying outer space. Astronomers believe there are more stars in the universe than there are grains of sand on the beaches throughout the world. That says a lot considering how much sand there is on one small area of just one beach.

There are a few traits that almost all stars have in common. First, they mostly consist of two gases: hydrogen and helium. Next, hydrogen burns into helium (nuclear fission), causing the stars to become extremely hot and shine brightly as they burn. Third, they have a life cycle, which the lesson discusses more in detail on the next page. And finally, air movement in the Earth’s atmosphere causes light to bend and stars to twinkle.

Life Cycle of Stars

In total, there are four steps in a star’s life cycle: birth, main sequence, red giant, and collapse. During the birth phase, stars begin as nebulae, which are giant clouds of dust, that join together by gravity. As gravity increases, they become hotter and change into protostars. The process of nuclear fission begins, and a star is born!

During the main sequence, the burning ball of gas will glow and burn energy for billions of years. It will remain in this stage for the majority of its existence. In addition, it begins to balance the shrinking and expanding. Once all the hydrogen gas runs out, it turns into a red giant. At this stage, the outer layer expands, leading to the final stage. When a star collapses, its core starts to produce iron. The star’s overall size determines the next stage. An average star becomes a white dwarf while larger ones create a nuclear explosion and resulting supernova. The supernova becomes a black hole or a neutron star.

Every star in our universe exists in one of these four stages. The majority of them are in the main sequence phase since that one lasts so long and takes up the majority of their life cycle. This is the stage that the sun is in currently, and has been in for billions of years already. Naturally, it will continue in this stage for billions more. Astronomers believe the sun is about halfway through a typical star’s lifecycle.

Students will learn that they can identify which stage a star is in by its color, which then puts it in one of three categories: dwarfs, giants, neutrons. Dwarfs are smaller and most likely red or yellow. They give off little light. A brown dwarf never gets large enough for nuclear fission to occur. White dwarfs are the remains of a collapsed giant. Giants are usually main sequence stars, sometimes called blue giants. Red giants form when hydrogen runs out. Some giants are as large as our entire solar system. Finally, neutrons are collapsed giants. These are very tiny and very dense.

Galaxies and Constellations

In one galaxy alone, there are billions of stars. A galaxy is basically a group of stars and other space objects, like planets, asteroids, moons, and so on. Galaxies spin around a center of gravity just as planets revolve around the sun. Of course, the distance is much greater for galaxies. Astronomers believe there are billions of galaxies in the universe, each with trillions of stars. Earth and our solar system are part of the Milky Way galaxy.

Smaller groups of stars create patterns that we call constellations. These patterns are visible from the Earth. They take the shape of different objects, like animals, mythical creatures, and things like compasses or crowns. There are more than 80 constellations to observe in our night sky. Famous ones include Orion, Ursa Major and Ursa Minor, Pegasus, and many others.

The 13 names for the signs of the zodiac are all constellations as well: Pisces, Aquarius, Gemini, Cancer, Libra, and so on. Ancient civilizations used constellations to help them in their travels, for tracking seasons, and as a calendar. (This would be a great time to ask students to find their zodiac sign on a constellation map of some kind.)

STARS LESSON PLAN WORKSHEETS

The Stars lesson plan includes three worksheets: an activity worksheet, a practice worksheet, and a homework assignment. Each one will help students solidify their grasp of the material they learned throughout the lesson. You can refer to the classroom procedure guidelines to know when to hand out each worksheet.

THE LIFE OF TWO STARS ACTIVITY WORKSHEET

For the activity, students will work with a partner to write a story about the life of two stars. They should be creative but must include accurate information about stars throughout the story. Each story should contain as least two characters or “friends” with names and personalities. The worksheet lists a series of questions for students to consider as they begin the assignment. For instance, which galaxy were the characters “born” in? Will the characters go through all four life cycle stages? How far away from Earth are these star characters located? Students should brainstorm their ideas and create a rough draft. Once they check for spelling and other conventions, they can complete a final draft, which they will later read to the class.

NUMBERS, STAGES, AND MATCHES PRACTICE WORKSHEET

The practice worksheet is divided into three sections. First, students must read seven descriptions and decide which option matches the descriptions as they relate to the topic. The next section requires students to place the life cycle stages in order and provide one fact about each one. Finally, students will match definitions to their correct terms. There are a total of seven definitions and terms to match in this section.

REVIEW OF THE FACTS HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENT

The last worksheet is a homework assignment that requires students to respond to 16 questions or prompts. You can decide whether or not you allow students to refer to the content pages for help in completing this assignment. You may also choose to use this or the practice worksheet as a quiz.

Worksheet Answer Keys

The last two pages of the PDF are answer keys for the both the practice and homework worksheets. All the correct answers are in red to make it easy to compare them to students’ responses. For the most part, students’ work should mirror the answer keys, but there will be some variation at times given the nature of some of the prompts or questions. If you choose to administer the lesson pages to your students via PDF, you will need to save a new file that omits these pages. Otherwise, you can simply print out the applicable pages and keep these as reference for yourself when grading assignments.

I love this and may give it a try! I love WBT! I will check out the video when I have a moment. Check my blog out sometime too. It is new and is in its beginning stages. Thanks, Angie timeoutsandtootsierolls.blogspot

You are after my heart! I sooo feel the same way about homework!! I also do Xtramath and LOVE it!! Have we met? :) JT Come on over and say hi!! Julie Thoughts of a Third Grade Teacher

How can I get a copy of your star homework? I love it so much! Thanks, Angie @ timeoutsandtootsierolls

Hi Angie & all, I have uploaded an entire Star Homework set to my TpT store- the sample download is the homework bookmarks, but the set includes some files in Word so you can customize the homework and the weekly graph to fit your class' needs. See my new post here: http://3rd-grade-thoughts.blogspot.com/2012/04/resources-to-implement-universal.html The direct link to the TpT files are here: http://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Star-Homework-Universal-Homework-Model Thanks so much and I hope you enjoy using them in your class! ~Stephanie

Are your homework bookmarks laminated or are they just paper for the one week? And we have homework folders, so I could just have my kiddos put their bookmarks and papers in there! I love this idea!!

This sounds awesome, I would love this for my class. Have you had any complaints about this system from the fourth grade teachers? I know that the third grade teachers that get my kiddos always think I'm going to easy on my kids in homework. Casey [email protected] Second Grade Math Maniac

I have taken your wonderful idea and added to it. It is a great system, I LOVE IT!! My students are so motivated to earn stars each day. I have added a STAR Menu for students to choose their activities as well as a goal sheet for individual students to begin to self monitor their own homework completion. I would love it if you would check out my links and free additional resources to complement your wonderful STAR homework program www.madlylearning.com

This is an awesome idea! I heard about you through the New Possibilities linky party! Thanks so much for sharing. I am a new follower! Hilary Second Grade is Out of This World!

I think this is a great idea. Homework is such a problem and the teacher is always the one who worries about it the most

I absolutely love all of your ideas! I am going into my fifth year teaching and because of much of your inspiration, I am revamping the way I do homework and rotations in our classroom! Thanks so much for all of the goodies. Also, you reference "free choice" as a reward on Fridays for star homework... what you mean by "free choice" exactly? Thanks!

I think this is a great idea and I think I've got my team on board to do it! (we switch for math and for reading so it was going to need to be all in or nothing). I'm just starting with third grade this year. Thanks for the great information! http://www.readsolvexplore.blogspot.com

I am a WBTr and am trying to implement the Star homework. Question... How is the star chart used exactly? Are stars placed on the chart in each column for each student as they go through the week? Are stars placed on the chart just to fill it up? I noticed on your sample it mentioned different colors for different days. This is what lead me to think maybe you do it by student since there are 25 blocks across the top.Please advise as soon as possible since we are trying to implement it for next week. THANKS!!!

Hi Stephanie, I have been doing a weekly homework packet and really hate when Monday rolls around and it's not ready! I had noticed this on the WBT website but had forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder! I agree with the person above who was confused with the graph. Would you mind explaining how the graph works or showing an example of what a graph might look like at the end of a typical week please?? Thanks so much!! Alice

Introducing Bright Stars

How many of you like to look at the stars? How many stars do you think are in the sky? Have you ever tried to count them? (Allow students to offer guesses and provide feedback.)
Even the smartest scientists do not know the number of stars in our universe as there are too many to count. There are billions of stars in our galaxy, called the Milky Way. Each of those stars is as unique as each of you. They are different sizes and even shapes. Many of them even have names. Today, we will learn about our galaxy and the stars in the night sky. We'll also learn about what happens when the stars come together to create a big picture called a constellation.

You can introduce the class to the concept of galaxies and constellations by reading one of the following age-appropriate books:

Galaxies, Galaxies by Gail Gibbons (ages 4-8)
A Child's Introduction to the Night Sky: The Story of Stars, Planets, and Constellations by Michael Driscoll (ages 5-9)
Zoo in the Sky by Jacqueline Mitton and Christina Balit

As you read, engage students and point out terms you want the class to recall, such as "galaxy."

Introduction to Activity

What constellations do you know? (Allow a few students to respond.)
Have you ever been to a planetarium to look at stars? (Have students respond by raising their hands.)
Or what about looking through a telescope? (Have students respond by raising their hands.)

Be sure to allow students to discuss their experiences, building a discussion as it pertains to the topic.

Next, introduce famous constellations; as you show images of the constellations, say:

Orion was a warrior, and Orion's Belt looks like a little boy wearing a belt. If you look to his side, he's carrying a sword, too.
Have you seen the one that looks like a little house with a triangle roof? That's Cepheus the King.
If you start at the point of Cepheus the King, you can find the star called Polaris. That's the constellation called Ursa Minor.
The big dipper is made in part from one star called the North star.
There are animals in the sky, too. There are two that look like bears. One is Ursa Minor, and the other is Ursa Major.
Think about a few of your favorite constellations as we do this activity together.
Today you will be creating constellations to hang from the ceiling in our classroom. You will use thin cardboard to cut out your stars to do this. You can then color and string your stars together to create your constellation.
Next, you will make your own telescope using a cardboard paper towel roll to view the different constellations in the classroom.

Steps to Create Constellations:

Hand out supplies and assign or let students choose their constellation.
Cut out stars from cardboard. (Each constellation will have a different amount of stars.)
Students may choose to color their stars.
String stars together in the shape of the constellation.
Hang constellations from the ceiling of your classroom.

Steps to Create Telescope:

Hand out supplies and let students color their cardboard paper towel rolls.

When the constellations are hung up, and each student has a telescope, they can experimentally play with their creations, looking up and identifying the stars.

To ensure students have learned about the constellations, you may have your students identify a constellation in your classroom via a verbal assessment or worksheet you can create based upon the created constellations.

Let your students take their telescopes home to encourage them to keep looking at the stars to explore the universe with their families at home.

homework charts

July 27, 2018 By Katie 3 Comments

Back to school brings mixed emotions in my home. For the kids, of course, it’s mostly sadness that the hazy lazy days of a hot summer have come and gone. It’s back to school and “too much homework” as they always say. For myself, as a Mom of a growing brood, there are the pros: first day of school signs and pictures, cute back to school clothes, quieter and more productive days, etc. But with the start of school, there is also the realization that I only get so many fun summers with my little ones before they want to hang out with their friends more than Mom. 😪 I also know that those clothes and supplies can cost a small fortune and with school comes endless homework, extracurricular activities, and the endless stream of paperwork and dates and times to remember for each child. Yep, definitely a mixed bag!

Of all the mixed emotions there is a constant that always seems to be a source of frustration in our home: homework. When it comes to homework I’m very, very comfortably between the tiger moms and the free-rangers, who respectively are strict disciplinarians who want sky-high academic results at all times and parents content to let their kids learn by doing and being independent as possible.

I’m not saying any of the either of the above approaches are more correct than the other, to each their own and every child needs to be parented in the way that suits them best. But I’m definitely not going to lose it if my kids miss a day of homework. Neither am I going to let them just play every day. Balance in all things is my philosophy. I’d assume most Moms rest in this cozy middle area with me. 🙂

In order to find the balance between too much and too little homework, I’ve spent some time creating homework charts, checklists, and planners for a variety of situations. ( I’ll be adding more and more over time so check back if you don’t see the one you want. Or leave a comment and I might be able to squeeze in some time to create new ones based off reader feedback.). You may also like these printable first day of school signs and bedtime routine charts too. #justsayin.

I hope one of the ones below, whether you use rewards or eschew them, works for your family and each specific child no matter what parenting style you use in your home! Just click on the text links below each preview image to download your PDF and then print your preferred hw chart for your home.

WEEKLY HOMEWORK CHARTS

Below are a variety of weekly homework charts and planners. While they vary a little bit most of them allow some combination of assignments or class, days of the week, dates, due dates, daily reading tracking, and some form of completion in the form of a checkbox or otherwise. I hope these weekly homework planners make life easier this year!

MONOCHROMATIC WEEKLY HOMEWORK CHART

HOMEWORK REWARD CHARTS

The charts below are set up for monthly tracking BUT just because they are monthly homework charts doesn’t mean you can’t set rewards at the daily or weekly level. I’ve always found it to be more effective when I tailor the rewards to each child and subject. Sometimes they need a reward on a daily basis (really struggling to form a good habit), sometimes on a weekly basis and sometimes the reward is such that they better do their homework for an entire month if I’m holding up my end of the bargain! So, whether you use these as a homework sticker chart or simply use checkmarks or something else entirely, hopefully, you’ll find a method that will work for your child! Even better if we can inspire them to love learning and the reward chart becomes a temporary aid to unlock a lifetime of learning!

STARS: A Student Recognition and Reward System That Really Works!

One of the most important decisions you will make when setting up your classroom is what type of recognition and reward system you will use. Over the last 15 years, I have tried many different types of reward systems. But the one that I have had incredible success with is called STARS. STARS is a student recognition and reward system. It's easy to implement and cost very little to start.

There are two parts to the STARS program:

a whole group, or class recognition and rewards
individual student recognition and rewards

What is STARS?

STARS is a program where the whole class AND each individual student is recognized and rewarded for positive behaviors, academic improvements, and accomplishments. This program offers an excellent way for teachers to recognize, reinforce, and encourage each student individually. It also gives the teacher a way to recognize and reward the class as a whole group.

Benefits of Using the STARS Program

Here are some of the benefits:

reinforce positive behaviors
reward the completion of an academic goal
reward the completion of a behavioral goal
recognize areas of improvement
encourage improvement in behavior
encourage improvement in academics
reward individual students consistently
can be used with a behavior modification system

List of Supplies Needed to Start:

STARS Program Guide
Plastic bin to collect tickets
Stars Reward Chart
Plastic Stars
Velcro dots
Tickets (raffle tickets found at office supply stores work best)
A prize bin
Class rewards list--brainstorm together
Prizes (reward cards and/or other small goodies or prizes)

Part One: Individual Recognition

When a student acts in a positive behavior or meets an academic goal, he or she is given a ticket. The student writes his or her on the ticket and places it into a bin. Each Friday, 5 (or more) names are drawn from the bin. Those students are allowed to pick one reward or item from the treasure chest. The key here is that there is no limit on the number of tickets a student can earn. That is the reason why students want to earn as many tickets as they can so that they have more chances to earn a reward at the end of the week.

How to Earn a Ticket

Because each student is unique, he or she can earn tickets for different reasons each week. It's important to stress that ALL students are STARS!

Below are some examples of when a student might earn a ticket:

when a student helps another student without being asked
when a student leads a group during group work
when a student shows great teamwork
when a student stays on task for a specified time
when a student follows directions right away
when a student prepares for the next transition without directions
when a student gives a compliment to another student
when a student helps the teacher without prompting
when a student has handed in his or her homework all week
when a student has done an exceptional job on a presentation
when a student has done a great job on a project
when a student has shown improvement
when a student has accomplished a goal
when a student didn't give up but instead persevered
when a student displayed a growth mindset
for any behavior that you want to reinforce and encourage
for any improvement (academically or behaviorally) no matter how small
for meeting a goal (academically or behaviorally)

Best Practices of the Program:

When a student earns a ticket, he or she can choose to donate the tickets to the class fund instead of entering them into the bin for an individual prize. This encourages generosity and the idea of putting others before yourself.
Because each and every student is has different goals, he or she might earn a ticket for different reasons. That is why at times, it's best to reward students quietly so you don't draw attention to or embarrass a student in front of the class.
When drawing names from the chance bin at the end of each week, I only allow each student to earn one reward, even if their name is drawn two or three times that day.
Students are not allowed to donate or give away their tickets to other students. Earning a ticket is a huge accomplishment and should be treated as a big deal.
If a student loses a ticket, or it goes through the wash, or the dog eats it, they are out of luck. No replacement tickets will be given. This encourages students to take responsibility for their own personal items.
When a student has been rewarded a ticket, they may not get up to place the ticket into the bin during class time. There are only certain times during the day when students are allowed out of their seats to place their tickets into the bin. These times might be during free time, at the end of the day, or the start of the day, or another time during the day that works for your daily schedule.
At the beginning of each month, I empty the bin and we start over again. Make sure to empty the bin when the students are not around so that they don't pick the tickets out of the garbage to put back into the bin later. (I learned by mistake when one student was in tears after seeing me throw the unused tickets into the trash.)
Never take a ticket away from a student. If a student earned a ticket on Monday and then makes a bad choice on Tuesday, don't take the ticket he or she already earned the day before away from him or her. The purpose is to encourage and reward positive behaviors. This undermines the value of earning a ticket. Instead, when a student makes a bad choice, there needs to be consequence equal to the action. For example, if a student didn't complete his or her math homework on Tuesday, then he or she will have to give up part of their recess time to complete the missing math homework. But please don't take a chance ticket away from a student that he or she already earned on another day previously.
On the last day of school, I pull from tickets from the bin until we run out of time, or every student has won a prize.
For the tickets, you can use decorate slips of colored paper with STARS that you copy at school. But, I have found that purchasing the raffle tickets like the ones you might see a fair or festival offers the most cost-effective way.
I have seen a similar system used with paper money instead of tickets. Then students save their money to buy items at the classroom store. This is an excellent way to reinforce basic economic skills. One of the problems that I have encountered with this system is that often times, students misplace or lose their money. This can cause them to become very upset and takes the focus away from earning a reward.

Part Two: Whole Group Recognition

It's as simple as collecting stars on a chart! As part of the STARS system, the whole class is recognized and rewarded too! Each time that the class has done something that should be recognized, the teacher places a star in Stars Reward Chart. When the chart is full OR the class has earned a set amount of tickets then the class earns a reward.

I usually laminate the stars reward chart and then attach one velcro dot in each box and one on each star as shown below.

Set the number to win a class reward at 25 or 50. The rule of thumb here is, the bigger the prize, the more stars required to win it!

Below are a few of the many examples of when a star might be earned by the class:

the principal walked into the classroom to deliver a message to the teacher and the class acted respectfully and stayed quiet
every student handed in their homework that was due that day
the class received a great report from another teacher (art, music, computer lab, etc.)
the class walked quietly through the hall to music class
during centers time, all students stayed on task and worked hard
at lunch, the class worked together to clean up their area
the phone rings in the classroom during indoor recess, and the class quiets down so the teacher can answer it
the class was well behaved for a substitute teacher (this earns 2-3 stars)

Likewise, there are times when a star might be removed from the Stars Reward Chart. If the class receives a bad report from the P.E. teacher or another teacher, for example, then remove a star from the chart. It is important for students to learn that there are consequences for our actions. This builds classroom community because students do not like to let down their peers. This instills the fact that they need to think about their actions and make good choices.

The ultimate reward for filling up the Stars Reward Chart with 50 stars is a class party, a special day, or some other predetermined prize. Depending on your school's policies, you might want the reward to be in the form of extra recess time, free time, or a special snack.

Brainstorm a List of Class Rewards

At the beginning of the year, as a class, we brainstorm a list of rewards that they can earn. It's fun to see what ideas the class comes up with and values most. Sometimes, it's a simple thing like extra recess time, having an ice cream party, or eating lunch in the classroom. After we create a list together, we narrow it down to the top 10 or 15 rewards by holding a class vote. On average, your class will earn one whole group reward each month so 10-15 rewards will give you plenty of options.

I like to write the rewards on a large piece of poster paper and hang it up where the class can see it. This creates a visual representation of what the class is looking forward to earning. Each time the class has earned the 25 or 50 stars, we refer back to the reward list and vote to determine what their next reward will be. The age of your students will determine what rewards will have the greatest value to them. Younger elementary students tend to like the fun-themed days and the older students will love having a pizza party or earning extra time to socialize with their friends.

Here are some ideas that my class came up with as rewards. Having the students brainstorm a list with you, ensures that the students will buy into this system and gives them choices. This combination equals a win-win situation!

crazy hair day
mismatched sock day
double recess time
dress up as your favorite book character day
Sit anywhere you want for a day
extra free time at the end of the day
stinky feet day
pizza party
eat lunch in the classroom
watch a movie
ice cream sundae party
smoothie party
upside down day
create an invention from recyclable materials
create your own special day

What's in the Prize Box?

You can decide what is best to put inside the prize box for your class. I like to have a combination of special treats and other non-food prizes. I try my best NOT to include treats that are high in sugar. For healthier options, I might include granola bars, small bags of pretzels or crackers, Rice Krispy treats, or other prepackaged snacks.

Other prizes might include sugar-free gum, chocolate kisses, or even small trinkets or toys. Some years I’ve purchased or had parents donate small toys, books, bubbles, and other trinkets that were bought at the dollar store to put into the prize box.

Rewards That Don't Cost Any Money

Other rewards in the prize box that don't cost anything and students love are small laminated reward cards with the following prizes:

pick a partner for any activity
pick a favorite book to read aloud to the class
eat a healthy snack while you work
switch seats with anyone in the class for a day
you’ve earned extra free reading time for the whole class
you’ve earned a nature walk for the whole class
you’ve earned an extra game time
eat lunch with a friend for a day

Free Behavior Charts for Kids

Welcome to our giant stash of free behavior charts.

Incentive behavior charts, including the classic “star” reward chart, have been around for a long time. There’s a reason for that—they work! Charts can help children shape their actions while also enjoying personal success.

Ready-to-go for different ages and needs

With this in mind, our nonprofit organization has developed a huge set of charts to help teachers and parents dealing with primary and intermediate age kids.

Maybe you have a challenge like potty training, daily chores, or homework completion—parents and teachers will find resources here. Perhaps your goal is giving a pat-on-the-back for achievement, or to show appreciation for effort. Just skim through to find what you need, knowing you can adapt them to your situation.

Need a contract to encourage a teen to follow the rules? We’ve thought of that, too.

“How can I download and use these?”

All of the behavior charts and other forms are free to download and print. Just click on one and it will be opened with Adobe Acrobat Reader. Please be patient when opening the files since they can take a moment to load (depending on your internet speed).

Everything on this page can be freely printed, copied and shared with others. We only request that you leave the copyright note on the chart.

Always trying to meet your needs!

We listen to feedback and aim to provide free tools that can help parents and teachers. Simple. Colorful. Useful, with kid-friendly designs. If you don’t see what you need, just let us know and we’ll do our best to create it.

‘we’ve done our homework’: Former star explains how Arsenal exploited Spurs star’s weakness

David Seaman has now reacted to Guglielmo Vicario ’s performance in the North London derby against Arsenal.

Tottenham have made a slow start to the new season with just one win in their first four league outings. They could have turned things around against an Arsenal team that were without a few of their star players. But, Spurs ended up suffering yet another defeat at the hands of Mikel Arteta ’s team despite dominating the proceedings.

Following their defeat, Guglielmo Vicario found himself surrounded by criticism for his inability to deal with balls coming into the box. Arsenal legend David Seaman was pleased to see that his former team had done their homework on Vicario once again and he delivered a stern verdict on the Italian shot-stopper.

While speaking on the Seaman Says podcast , he said: “I love that we’ve done our homework on Vicario again. You could tell that he was getting too involved in what’s around him before the ball came in. He did that in last season’s game I think. “With this goal, he gets too involved with the players around him, but actually these players that were around him in this game were his own players. Whereas last time Ben White did a great number on him and just blocked him and moved off, this time it was his own players. “He didn’t even come out to a ball that he should have been coming out to, at least punch it, if not catch it.”

Once again it was a set-piece that led to the downfall of Ange Postecoglou ’s men. An inswinging delivery from a corner in the 64th minute of the game by Bukayo Saka was headed home by Gabriel Magalhaes and it was enough for the Gunners to come out with all three points.

Seaman highlighted the fact that Vicario was too busy dealing with players in and around him that he forgot to deal with the incoming delivery which was very close to the six-yard box. Last season he conceded a similar goal in the derby, when it was Ben White who blocked him from coming out of his area back then. This time around he was busy dealing with his own players which helped the opposition get on the scoresheet.
