Teacher Hack - Bathroom Passes

Video Blog - Using Bathroom Passes in High School (with free download)
During my tenure as a high school teacher, I concluded that few students who requested to go to the bathroom during class actually visited the bathroom when they left the classroom.

So, to stop the flood of students wanting "to go to the bathroom," I created a bathroom pass.

How it Works:
*Students get a new bathroom pass each grading period that gives them two bathroom trips.
*When they use their pass to go to the bathroom, I use a hole punch to punch out one of the stars on their pass.
*If they lose their pass or I've already punched out both of their stars, they cannot go.
*On the last day of the grading period, students who have not used their bathroom passes turn them into me. As an incentive for not using their pass, I give students the choice of a free homework grade (I turn a zero into a 100) or extra credit on a quiz or a test from that grading period.
        *You can choose the amount of extra credit to give based on your own individual classes. I typically give 5                 points to my Honors/AP classes and 10 points to my standard or lower level classes.

Exceptions:
I do grant students exceptions for medical conditions and extreme circumstances. This pass is not intended to punish students who truly need to use the bathroom, but to discourage students from using a trip to the bathroom as a way to check up on friends, wander the halls, etc..
