  Case: Kindergarten Classrooms
I teach kindergarten and each teacher on our team have students who misbehave frequently and have constant behavioral issues. The administration is reward those students when they do well in attempt to improve their behavior. However the other students are seeing these students being rewarded and now they are wondering why they don't get those same rewards. It is a difficult situation. How can we improve the behavior of some of these students without making a difference?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In the younger grades the students thrive on positive reinforcement. If you have a positive behavior management system for all students then even those that behave appropriately on a regualar basis are rewarded. For the students with behavior difficulties, they are still able to experience success for small steps toward appropriate behavior. With a positive behavior management system everybody is being rewarded for good behaior and everybody wins!

Comments: That is so true. Letting everyone be rewarded is always a good idea, because then the good students may start acting out if they realize that only the misbehaving students get rewarded for behaving. They may think "so what's the point of behaving all the time?". The students who have difficulties with their behavior can see that the other students might be a good example of what they want to be because they see how others always get rewards for behaving, and they in turn want those rewards as well.
