We have a doorbell on your locked door and it would probably send me over the edge if kids were having to ring that every time they went to the bathroom. One thing I don't have is a water fountain, so I make the kids bring a water bottle if they get thirsty. If I ever don't have a bathroom in my room...I will be using your method! <br />Alison<br /><a href="http://www.rockinandlovinlearnin.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Rockin' and Lovin' Learnin'</a>Alison Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18353164628345963175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8678514486069553970.post-5912426876215119732013-09-01T21:57:55.710-05:002013-09-01T21:57:55.710-05:00I am so glad we have a bathroom in our class.

I know first hand that my new group of students got to use the bathroom whenever they wanted (no management there) so I know it's going to be tough for them when I say no!

I love it, especially since you're not forbidding them from using the bathroom, but they have to purchase another card if they run out of punches! You're teaching time management, responsibility, priorities, and budgeting all with a bathroom pass!!! I bet this cuts down bathroom use a lot!!
