  Case: Marbles
I use a points system in my classes that allows for the students to compete against each other for a celebration at the end of the weeks. It really works.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Your points system sounds interesting. I use some similar in my classroom. Each day my student earn "money" for their behavior. At the end of each month they must subtract $800.00 from their total earnings, this is what they owe me for rent, water, and power. They can purchase homework passes, extra credit, candy, or supplies with their extra money. It gives them an incentive to work towards and also teaches them real life skills.

Comments: This is such a great idea to implement into the classroom and by throwing in reality it sort of gives kids an idea of savings and spending. The more the better is how most kids usually feel especially with some good competition.
