[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Forget the stupid treasure box. That's nonsense and won't do anyone any good. You do NOT need and in fact should not have one - it's really not good behavior management. Get to know your students instead and have a 5 minute dance/music break as a reward if you need one. Way better than some plastic junk.[/quote] Sweeping generalizations aren’t really useful. I use a treasure box when I need students to return something, like library books at the end of the year. It’s very motivating for some students and helpful in certain situations, just like a dance or music break is motivating for some students. Others are moved by quiet reading time, or teacher helper time, etc. This thread has people wanting to nitpick how this teacher plans to run her classroom. OP, this is a taste of the micromanagement efforts you will get from admin, parents, and the general public. Take advice from educators you trust and let the rest roll of your back.[/quote]
