"Rewards"

We have a fun new "reward" system that we are starting!  At the beginning of the year, each group (there are 5 of them) voted on their own group names.  We now have Blue Group, Rangers, Winners, Cool Group, and Texas Rangers.  At the end of every day, the group with the most points (for great teamwork) gets a star by their group name.  Every Friday, we count which group has the most stars.  The winning group will now chose a Coupon.  As a class, we created 10 different coupons to choose from.  I encouraged all students to think of something fun that they would like to be able to do in the classroom that they normally wouldn't get to do!  Here are our Reward Coupons....* Take your shoes off during Silent Reading and sit wherever you want!  * 5 names in the basket!  *Bring an object from home and show it to the class!  *Bring a book from home and read it to the class!  *Sit in the front row for morning meeting!  *Start on BLUE everyday next week!  *Choose whichever Literacy Station you want to work at all next week!  *Write/Draw about your weekend and share it to the class!  *Display all of your writing/drawings for the week on our classroom bulletin board!
