Title of Bulletin Board: Free Choice Day

Category: Behavior Incentives

Suggested Grade Level: 3-5

Materials: poster board and markers

Description:

In order for our school to increase positive class behaviors, all special area teams have developed "Rama Prouds" (a piece of paper with a paw stamped on it). Rama prouds are given to classes that follow the rules and show exceptional behavior. The class with the most "prouds", receives a popcorn party at the end of each month by the principal.

Additional Information:

On a wall in the gym, I designed bones and people figures (with teachers names on each person). In Physical Education class, each time a class leaves with a Rama Proud, I move their teachers lamenated person up to a new bone on the wall. We discuss the location, importance, and activities associated with the bone. Each class objective is to move down the wall from bone to bone until they reach the full skeleton. The class will then receive a Free Choice Day, which includes a game/activities chosen by the class for that day.
