Chance Cards

A sixth-grade math teacher in Crossville, Tennessee

Found In: bulletin boards, discipline, motivating students, routines & procedures

I have a wall labeled “Chance” in the back of my classroom. I have seasonal objects around the label that hide individual or classroom rewards. The students never know what they’re going to get when they win a trip to the “Chance Board.” I send them for things like adding really neat extras to our lesson, helping others, doing a good job on homework or doing perfect on tests or quizzes. It’s a very simple idea and the students love it. They always remind me if I haven’t used it in a few days. The chances are also connected to my behavior plan, and it’s not just available to the top students.

Nice Idea ! For rewards, I'd use our schools front of the line passes, caught being good, and inexpensive school supplies. Could roll dice to get prizes too....my junior highers like rolling dice.

I teach high school special education, what kind of rewards do you give without running into money issues?
