What kids do
“Earn 5 tokens to get what you are working for.”
Printed on the sheet:
- I am working for:
- 5 tokens, then my reward!
Teacher tip
One page gives you two boards: cut it in half. Draw or glue the reward in the box, and name the reason for each token as you give it.
How to use it
- Start with a goal the student can reach in a few minutes.
- Give the reward as soon as the board is full, every time.
- Give help quietly and fade it fast: point before you speak, and speak before you move a hand.
Watch for
A reward the student no longer wants. Check the reward menu often.
Talk about it
- How many more do you need?
- What helped you do that by yourself?
Take it further
Let the student give the tokens to themselves when they notice their own good work.
