Discipline/Rewards
“Science Bills”
"Positive behavior is the key to success"
In my classroom I reward positive behavior. I have found this to be
successful in creating a fun and engaging learning environment. In my classroom I utilize a system called “Science
Bills”. Each student will be given 5 “Science Bills” at the beginning of each trimester It is the student’s
responsibility to keep them safe; if they are lost, they will not be replaced. Students can earn “Science Bills” throughout
the year by being a positive contributor, working diligently and safely in
labs, participating in class discussions, answering questions, completing assignments
to a high standard, exhibiting positive classroom behavior and respecting
others. Students can then use these “Science
Bills” to submit late work, to request a redo on an assignment/quiz or they can be traded in at the end of the semester for extra
credit.
