Weekly Behavior Chart

I started reading this book on ADHD called "1,000 Best Tips for ADHD: Expert Answers and Bright Advice to Help You and Your Child" by Susan Ashley PhD.
I am about 300 tips into this book, but it said to use points/tokens to get your child to do certain behaviors.  I had this systems for the older 2 back in 2010.  We are going back to our Behavior/Chore Chart that uses the points and token system.  I did find this, but it took awhile.  I have a habit of emailing files to myself and this is how I found it.  If it was not for me emailing myself, I would not have this file.  Yea Me!!  It was on my old laptop that died!!  The way I have this system set up to earn both Tokens and Points.  Points the kids used towards their allowance.  Tokens are for special privileges.

Here is the Privilege Level Chart I use:
I got this off of a website, but I am not sure where.  If you see something like this, please let me know so I can link this back to that website.  I made all of this in Word back in 2009.  I updated it whenever I needed it to.  To earn Token, they have to have so many points.  Each level is worth so many Tokens.

Old Version of Behavior Chart:  
I had both Tokens and Points on this same chart, but I decided to redo it.

New Version of Behavior Chart based on Points:  
I made this one in Excel.  It took me awhile to figure out how to get a table.  I can not figure out how to get rid of Column 2, etc.  I forgot to put Noah's name at Column 1.  I have not do a chart for the tokens.  They get Tokens based on the Privilege Level Chart.  I will make a Token chart soon.  Both Ashleigh and Noah's are about the same except for 1 or 2.  For Ethan's, I based it on what I need for him.  I wanted to do a Behavior Chart that is longer than 1 week.  I could not get 4 weeks on the same piece of paper.

Beside this chart, we have House Rules.  I have one for each child.  I need to update Ethan's.  This spells it out what I need from them daily.  I read this in the book I listed above about kids with ADHD need a written to do list.

We also have a Contract, too, that I can use if we have any issue with listening.  I need to update it since we are using the Point/Token system.  I have not used this Contract with the Point/Token system together.

Do you use a Behavior or Chore Chart?  Let me know if you do.
