  Case: Let's Clean It Up
In my classroom, I have several students that refuse to help clean up after centers. Instead of cleaning up, they go behind the other students and take the toys back out. I have a clean-up song that I play, but it does not help. Any suggestions as to how I can encourage these students to clean-up?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would try and provide incentives periodically in order to encourage students to want to clean up. Examples: best organizer, most helpful, fastest cleaner, etc. Prize could be an addition to an already established awards system or maybe have a goodie box in which winners can choose one prize from.
