[quote=Anonymous]One other thought on the school/home connection. It can be very effective, but i think it works better as positive reinforcement -- he is rewarded because he "earned" something at school. At first it should only be easily achievable goals and small rewards -- if it is too difficult then kids will give up. Then you can gradually work up to larger things (ideally rewards like extra iPad time, as opposed to "no iPad time at all if you don't earn this".). Another thing to watch out for is all-or-nothing rewards like "get x if you earn y every day this week, otherwise nothing." It's better if kids can't self-sabotage, like "get x if you earn y on five days" so the progress isn't wiped out if he loses it. [/quote]
