FAQ

  • What is Classroom Cues™?

    Classroom Cues™ is a collection of silent, visual routines that help your classroom run smoothly—without constant reminders, raised voices, or reward charts. Each system gives students the structure they need to stay focused and independent + brings you peace!

  • Who are these systems designed for?

    These cues were built for real teachers in real classrooms—especially those juggling large class sizes, multiple groups, or back-to-back transitions. They’re perfect for upper elementary (3rd–5th) but can be adapted for younger or older students, too.

  • How do I know which cue is right for my class?

    If you’re constantly interrupted while teaching, start with the Headband Cue™.
    If restroom requests are nonstop, grab the Restroom Cone Cue™.
    If students crowd your table during independent work time, you’ll love the Now Serving™ Number Tent System.
    (Or get all 3 and watch your classroom transform.)

  • Do these systems align with PBIS?

    Yes!
    Classroom Cues™ fully supports PBIS by reinforcing positive behavior through clear expectations and consistent routines.

    ✔️ Visual, proactive signals that teach students what to do—without waiting for a correction
    ✔️ Tier 1 alignment with schoolwide norms like “Be Respectful” and “Be Responsible”
    ✔️ Inclusive by design—perfect for English learners, neurodiverse students, and anyone who thrives on structure

    In short: it’s all about making good behavior the default, not the exception

  • Can I use these even if I don’t have strong classroom relationships yet?

    YES. That’s the whole point.
    Classroom Cues™ gives students clear, calm boundaries they can follow from Day 1, even before the trust is fully built. It’s not about your personality—it’s about the system.
