Reading  Reward Chart idea

Reward ideas
I am all for a reward system. Over the years of working with children and being a teacher, I am always looking for new fun reward ideas. My favourite idea that I came up with was the Apple Tree and Apple Reward System. More on this below plus my ideas for fun reward charts:

Reward Chart idea

1. APPLE TREE AND APPLE REWARD SYSTEM:
Find a simple black and white clipart along with black and white clipart apples. Keep everything black and white as this will allow your child to colour their tree as they want. Encourage your child to use different colours for their tree and not the standard green and brown colours




2. FROG POND REWARD SYSTEM:
Same as above for a Reward Chart but this time find a pond and lots of frogs. After so many frogs, a treat is given

Fun written Reward tags you could cut out and use

3. HOMEWORK STARS REWARD SYSTEM:
A simple star chart that can be printed. Every time your child does their homework, either a star sticker is given or a paper clipart star. This great star chart as it assists with academic progress

4. SIMPLE CHOICES
Never say to your child that they can what they want but instead give two simple choices. Children love being in control of what they are doing. Giving two simple choices allows for critical thinking and cognitive development

Remember a Reward Chart is something fun and doesn't use it as a bribery system. Reward Chart is something special and your child must expect to get a reward for something that they are supposed to be doing anyway. This would be taking a bath or brushing their teeth before bed.

Encourage positive behaviour! :)
