I’m sure you’ve heard of Class Dojo, if not, you need to check it out! It is an interactive way to award your students points for good behavior or take them away if needed. I never take their points away, when they earn them they've got them, but you have to do what works for you and your class.
In my room we use the points like currency that the kids can spend on Fridays. My class loves the “Dojo Store.” The only problem is that if the kids don’t spend all of their points it’s kind of a pain to subtract some not all of their points. Sometimes I just write their totals down and adjust them later.
Our biggest seller on Dojo Store day is a raffle ticket. The raffle ticket is for a big prize drawing that we do on the last school day of the month. I try to make them fairly big prize packages and I try to include a book. The Target dollar spot is a gold mine when I’m looking for my raffle prizes. Here is what I found this month
I don’t always separate the girl’s and boys prizes but I didn’t think my boys would appreciate One Direction as much as the girls would. When I get back to school I’ll add a book to each prize pack. When I do the drawing there are tickets left in the box, I leave them in for the next drawing, that way anyone that has purchased a raffle ticket still has a chance to win next month.
What kind of rewards do you offer your class for good behavior?
