  Case: Classroom Rewards - Candy or Not?
I usually give candy (Dum Dums) for small rewards in my classroom. With so much emphasis on healthy eating lately, what other small rewards could I give my students for following classroom routines?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
Instead of continuously giving candy as a reward, I use tally marks to reward good behavior. Then, at the end of the grading period, those who have accumulated the set number of marks I designate as exceptional, recieve a reward such as pizza or cupcakes. So, even though these aren't healthy rewards, they are only given once every grading period rather than everyday.
