  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!)
Classroom rewards can be brain breaks, listening to their choice of a kidz bop song, or a few minutes of free time to draw/structured play. Individual rewards can be hand-written notes, excellent phone call homes, and "students of the day" posters. Personally, I try to avoid rewarding students with materialistic items.

Comments: I like the small music break, you could also allow them to dance around their desks to the music to get energy out.

Comments: Awesome alternatives! I think its best to do away with candy or food in general due to the mess it can cause as well food allergies that arise in particular students.
