My little boy has just started in reception -well 6 weeks ago. They have a rainbow system whereby if they do positive things they get moved up to silver and then gold for further good behaviour. If they are naughty they get moved down to orange and then further down to red. In the first week it appeared that everyone in the class managed to get at least up to gold and get a sticker at the end of the day, however since then my little boy hasn't moved. I am pleased to say that he hasn't moved down but neither does he ever seem to move up.
I did approach the teacher and she said they get moved up for kind behaviour, sharing, politeness etc. That day my ds got moved to gold but since then not moved again. I spoke to my ds who said that it is still good not to move at all but I notice every day a lot of children coming out having moved up at least one or two places. He says that he is kind and shares and polite but never moves. He doesn't seem bothered by it but I am. Maybe I shouldn't be. He is generally a very lovely boy(in my opinion!) so I wander where he can improve to get moved up! I don't want the teacher to feel that I am a pestering mother but wander how important is it? I want to help him but anything that I suggest that he does at school to help him get moved up doesn't seem to work!
Maybe I should not care and be happy as long as my little boy seems happy at school. Helpful comments would be appreciated.
