  Case: Incentives
What do you find is the best incentives system? I am trying to find a new approach at rewarding good behavior.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I think it depends on how you want to incentivize individuals and/or the class as a whole. For individuals, you could use fake money, pass it out to the kids for being on task, helping others, doing what they are supposed to without being told, etc. Within the room, you can have an incentive store: crazy erasers, sheets of stickers, fidget items, homework passes, etc. Students can use their "bucks" to purchase items. For the class, if they meet certain requirements or benchmarks, you could have class outside, movie & popcorn day, or have an activity where kids are making/using food in class. Find out what your kids like, dislikes, and see it is that motivates them academically and socially.

Comments: I used to love this approach as a kid in elementary school. It would be so fun to save up enough "money" to buy something really cool from the class store.

Comments: We must ensure that there is compromise for lost "money". The teacher must keep track so that students can't steal money or lose motivation by misplacing it.
