The Expected & Unexpected Visual Support Kit

Create a calm, focused classroom with this positive behavior management tool!

The Expected & Unexpected Behavior Visual Support Kit supports your classroom management, promotes student self-regulation, and simplifies differentiated behavior instruction. With clear visual cues, this kit helps students understand what respectful, responsible behavior looks like—without relying on clip charts, lectures, or constant reminders.

 

Perfect for teachers seeking an engaging, proactive approach to building strong classroom expectations!

 

With over 50 Expected Behavior visuals and matching unexpected examples, this toolkit includes posters, expected behavior cue cards (perfect for desks and lanyards), and editable templates to support your behavior management system all year long.

 

This isn’t just another cute classroom display—it’s a practical system for teaching behavior, not just managing it.

 

• Win Buy-In from Older Students – They’ll actually look at these posters—thanks to the clean visuals, relatable examples, and just enough humor to keep it real.
• Stop Repeating Yourself – Use the visuals as quiet reminders that do the talking for you. Fewer lectures, fewer power struggles, better results.
• Teach Behavior Before It Becomes a Problem – Prevention beats correction. These tools help students see what’s expected—so you can focus on teaching, not troubleshooting.
• Bring Clarity to Your Classroom – No more “but I didn’t know!” excuses. Students learn exactly what expected behavior looks and sounds like—in routines, in transitions, and in life.
• Empower Students to Reflect & Communicate – With goal posters, checklists, and choice menus, students can name what they’re working on, where they shine, and what they need help with.
