Primary A-Z of. Rewards and incentives. Volume 3
Description
Stickers, housepoints, buttons and marbles - how can you reward the pupils in your class? The key is consistency. Eight teachers from schools across the UK talk about their approaches to rewarding children and the problems and pitfalls a teacher faces. Children understand fairness even better than adults, but what is a consistent approach, and how do you explain it not only to your children but to their parents? How important is it to know a child to be able to reward them, and are there rewards that just don't work for some children? Teachers talk about how the key to a successful reward is the praise that accompanies it; giving children positive feedback is a million times more successful in controlling behaviour and promoting learning than focusing on mistakes. Praise is everything - but what can go wrong with rewards?
