Case: Incentives in the classroom: treats
When I was in elementary school, a lot of my teachers would pass out candy for participating in certain classroom activities. Answering questions correctly, or jeopardy games, or get an A on a test for instance. I remember my classmates and I were always very enticed by these types of incentives, is this system allowed and praised, or is it frowned upon? What are some alternative approaches besides verbally incentivizing students?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
In the school that I am at, it is very common to see teachers give "treats" (ie candy, chocolate, etc.) as an incentive. I personally do not do this and instead I use Class Dojo for them to earn points. Once they have so many points, they can shop in our class store for coupons such as, no homework pass, have lunch with a teacher, stinky feet pass, brain break, etc. All of my students love these passes and I believe they can get more of an experience out of incentives like these then they would by being offered a "treat". |

| Comments: I love your stance on this. I also love the idea of bringing back the no homework pass. When I was in elementary school that was the most common incentive our school used. |
