The Daily Report Card allows the student’s team (and the
student) to take aim at specific behaviors that interfere
with success and/or behaviors that support success. A
Daily Report Card is tangible; most often it is a piece of
paper with a system for recording performance and making
comments. The form can be a daily form (just used that
day) or it could compile ratings over an entire week.
Students carry the DRC through their day, handing it over
to each teacher they have. In some cases, the DRC is sent
home daily for parents to sign and discuss with their child.

The teacher also holds a brief (about a minute) conference with the

student at the end of the period to share the feedback. When the
student reaches a predetermined level of success, he receives a
reward for improved behavior. To see a teacher providing feedback to
a student, you can go to this link.
A Rating System Is Determined: For ease in filling out the DRC, there are ratings so
that the teacher simply has to circle or check off how the student performed. Often,
at the bottom of the form, there is a place for comments. Students can also use a
DRC to self-monitor their behavior. Sometimes both the teacher and the student
use the same form together.
When a student is self-monitoring, he may not assess his behavior accurately, either
assigning too high a rating or too low a rating. Rather than telling the student he is
“wrong” in his assessment, the teacher can share how she would assess the
behavior and why. Praise the student when he is more accurate in his assessment
of his behavior. Remember that metacognition (an executive function that helps a From:
person stand outside themselves to see how they are performing) is a skill that http://www.jimwrightonline.com/pdfdo

takes a long time to develop.
Success Is Quantified: The student will be rewarded for meeting expectations so the ratings have
to summarized in some way to determine whether the student has met expectations. If, for
example, the ratings are on a scale of 1-3, the ratings can be added up and compared to a pre-
determined number that must be attained in order to consider that day/period a “success.” In the
example below, the number of “yes” and “no” responses are added up to create a percentage. In
this instance, if the student achieves over 80%, he is considered to have achieved success. He
would earn a reward.

Troubleshooting the DRC
-The student may not yet have replacement skills to use in place of the targeted
behaviors. Flip the DRC to monitor for his attempts to use the replacement skills
rather than monitoring the behaviors you are trying to replace.
-The student may not understand what the criteria is for getting the highest rating. If
the criteria is obscure (keeps hands to himself 80% of the time), it may be unclear.
Student is not improving More clear could be “touches other kids’ stuff more than one time.”
-Are the rewards being delivered reliably? If the student has some kind of terrible
episode unrelated to the DRC but makes his goal on the DRC, he is still eligible for the
DRC reward. If this happens frequently, modify the DRC.
-The targeted behaviors might be too hard right now. Make the criteria easier and
then build up from there.
-The student might lack some skills needed to meet the goals. For example, his poor
organizational skills may prevent his being able to get his work completed and handed
in. He may need support with organization before the work expectations are realistic.
If the losing is tied to getting a poor evaluation in a class, give more support to help the

the day mean the day is shot. Add a section to recognize and reward his “turning around a
difficult moment and getting back on track.” This won’t mean he will earn the reward
but it is a way to recognize that he got back on track.
-This may be his way of saving face. Don’t get into a power struggle about this.

-Create a neutral script to use when the student doesn’t get a good rating. “You did

-Develop a social narrative to help the student understand that one poor rating is not
the end of the world.
