Create an elementary art environment that praises and encourages desirable student behaviors. Learn how to reward good behavior in a meaningful way that helps develop intrinsic motivation. Check out our “Positive Reinforcement” tip sheet that gives creative ideas that can be adapted for any classroom.
- Some examples of positive reinforcement from our tip sheet includes:
- Create a slip of paper with a fun website of the week. Distribute it to students caught doing the right thing.
- Xerox fun “how to draw” pages. Give out to hard working students.
- Create a compliment slip for children to fill out about other children (example). This can be filled out at any time during class (except clean up). You need to teach that the compliment must be specific. (Not just Joe was nice.) Read compliment out loud for class to hear and give to compliment recipient.
- Create a positive reinforcement game board (example).
