Digital Behaviour Rewards Board

This PowerPoint based rewards board is designed to reward positive behaviour, placing additional focus on collective class responsibility. It is fully animated with moving backgrounds, sound effects and nine editable boxes to showcase your clear expectations.

It follows my own school’s behaviour rewards system (House Point and Commendation) but you can change it to your own tiered system. You can also change any of the behaviours to suit your own expectations.

To use:

1. Present the PowerPoint on your projector or IWB.
2. Use the plus and minus buttons on each behaviour expectation to place the corresponding number in the Rewards Panel at the bottom of the screen. E.g. the ‘Kindness’ plus button will add the ‘1’ and the ‘Kindness’ minus button will remove it.
3. Once boxes 1-4 are filled in, the class are rewarded with a House Point. Once all boxes (1-6) are filled in, the class are rewarded with a Commendation.
4. The red boxes are for poor behaviour and clicking the plus signs on any of the red boxes will freeze boxes 4 and 6 (thus preventing the class from receiving their reward); this MUST be a temporary measure to encourage positive behaviour from those who have not met expectations yet. Use any of the red minus buttons to remove the ‘Frozen’ icons.

By encouraging collective responsibility from the class, it places the responsibility for good behaviour on all children. Publicly celebrating good behaviour and using individual children’s behaviour to dictate the outcome has frequently encouraged results. For this to to work fully, it is vital that you demonstrate that you are more interested in rewarding the positive!
