Level System

The Level System was started with my own children while they were growing up. Some of my children still use pieces of the original system with their own children.

One of my children's childhood friends reciently contacted me and told me that they remembered my Level System and wanted to use it for her children. She said that she remembered wanting to be in my family when she was growing up, because my children had boundaries and they all knew what their responsibilities were. She wanted that for her children.

After I became a teacher, I began using the Level System in my classroom with some changes that would accommodate my students.



My favorite quote is:

We are Free to make choices, BUT we are NOT Free from the Consequences of the Choices that we make.

The Level System works with the principles that everyone has responsibilities, and with those responsibilities comes the priveleges.


There is a copy of my classroom Level System on my school web page:

On this same web page is the Think Time information.
This information pertains to my classroom, however it has many of the strategies that are useful to parents in a home situation.
You can also access a PDF of my Classroom Disclosure by clicking on Disclosure, scrolling to the bottom of the page and clicking on the PDF Document link. At the end of the document is the Level System for Parents. This is the very same Level System that I used in my own home with my own children.

I know that this is a difficult way to understand the techniques used in The Level System. I will be Blogging on more of the details of the system and answering questions.

I hope to make this information accessable to parents who want to help their families become successful and happy.
