Supercharge your rewards system by adding the power of student choice!
The option of having choice is attractive to anyone, especially elementary students! For the sake of maintaining control and classroom management, students are given limited autonomy during a school day.
Let’s face it, sometimes as teachers we have a hard time letting go or allowing space for student choice. We are truly masters at controlling chaos. It could be our insatiable desire to keep things in order so that we can remain organized or it could just be a means to ensure they complete the assignment like it’s “supposed to be”. However, a rewards menu allows for students to be given opportunities to use their voice along with personal expression.
Students who may struggle with behavior or academic issues often need small rewards in order to stay motivated to complete difficult tasks. Reward Menus support this motivation tremendously.
It is a set of fun and tangible items that students can choose from after successfully completing an assignment or task.
The rewards menu encourages fairness and encourages student choice.
A reward that may seem minute to some but can be used as a powerful tool for classroom management.
If you want to reward your students with some fun opportunities that are beyond the usual check out the menu below:
How cool would it be to allow a student a day to be a principal in training! They could spend the day with their principal, visiting classrooms and rewarding their peers with sweet treats.
Lots of students LOVE music! There are a ton of ways to create an amazing playlist- youtube, apple music, spotify! Once the student has completed the playlist- allow them to play it during work time or have a brief dance break!
It is something special about the chair that spins, looks super comfy and it is usually not accessible by students! The choice to see in the teacher’s chair is sure to give their peers a little bit of envy!
Let’s face it… no student adores homework and is given the opportunity to skip out for not 1 but 2 nights! Try it! This is a sure way to bring excitement!
Create a treasure chest full of random goodies. It can be filled with kid toy favorites and treats from your area dollar store!
Movie Day, Dance Party, Board Games galore or a gaming tournament? Whatever is chosen is sure to be a fun time!
Time outdoors when everyone else has to be rushed inside can provide space for unlimited exhilaration!
Student leadership should be cultivated through a student's learning experience. What better
