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!) Ask the students what rewards they would like. A lot of times pens or pencils or even cool bookmarks and erasers can be substituted. Giving free time or computer time is something as free time is when behavioral issues happen and there is often not enough computers for each student to receive this as a reward.
