Positive Reward Systems

When students reach expected goal/s, they may be rewarded with a 2 minute break to read their favorite book, relax, spend quiet time to re-charge their batteries etc. Positive statements can also make a big difference to motivate functional and effective behavior. Statements such as,
“Thank you Susan for packing your things away.”

“I appreciate the way Nicole lined up quietly.”

“I like the way you organized your desk Tim.” 

The way and how we say things goes a long way!

Please share any reward systems that you may have used to motivate students in the classroom.
