On Friday 18 May Kea class had a fun day as a Reward.
The Reward was earnt by listening to instructions and following instructions straight away.
Each child had a dollar chart and every time they were using listening five or were following instructions they were rewarded with a pretend dollar. This Reward system worked very well over a 10 day period to put a focus on positive behaviours.
The rewards were selected and agreed on by the children. They were very motivated to earn enough dollars to have all of the rewards. We all had fun on slipper day. This helped to build relationships between the children and myself as we had the chance to interact in a fun environment. may parents also commented and thanked me for making a fun day.
