Hi, I started teaching Year 1 last term and I was planning to have a kind of reward chart system but it didn't work out, many of them are ESL (am in an international school) and immature, first time at school etc. I just used stickers to motivate them most of the time and gave out certificates in assembly.
This worked ok but I feel like I could now do something to motivate them a bit more. Some of them need to be pushed to try a bit harder and some of them have some behavioural issues which need ironing out. I know one of my colleagues uses a golden ticket system where they get tickets for achievements/ good behaviour etc and then get put into a weekly draw for a prize. I like this idea as it is simple and seems effective but I want to do something different. Does anyone have any suggestions for an alternative system which I can easily explain and implement starting from the first week back?
