Stickers work great for Journal Writing. Have students choose a sticker from one sheet so time is not wasted picking one.Walking in the hall quietly can be a challenge. Carry your stickers and hand them out when you see a very quiet student doing the right thing. Others will notice quickly. Or say " You may move your conduct clip or magnet when we return to the room."
Many schools collect Box Tops and this can be a perfect reward for good behavior.

| Caught Being Good |
Cut small strips of paper and explain to the students that if they are caught
doing the right thing, following directions, working hard...being good...
they write their name on a slip of paper and it goes in a container. Anything
will work to place the slips into...a baggie, or a plastic cup. Half-way through
the day pull out a number of names and give the students some kind of reward.
This gets other students excited about getting their names added. Pull names at the end of the day as well. SAVE the slips for the teacher so good students may be identified. Students may be chosen more than one time.
Carry a book of short stories or pick out a chapter book in the classroom as an easy way to fill extra minutes. Students always love to be read to.
Vocabulary words or Sight Words work great as a quick Wheel of Fortune game or Hang Man game.
Stress that students must sit quietly and raise hands to participate.
