  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 have a point system that I use with my students. The first team to finish cleaning up recieves 5 points, The second team gets 4 points and the third team gets 3 points.Only if their areas are completely cleaned up properly and in the right place. These points add up daily and at whichever group has the most points at the end of the week gets a prize. It encourages the teams to work together and gets things cleaned up quickly. It also teaches students that puttingbthings up in an ordely manner is important.
