Incentives

Apart from the Award Sytem for Display of Good Behaviour by the school. As a teacher, I also have come up with some incentives to reward the pupils for their efforts in completing their tasks and etc. The incentives come in many forms. (Coupons, stationeries & etc)

The decision to include incentives for the pupils is a small platform on my part to help enhance learning and motivate the pupils to strive for the better. It is also a useful tool for me to allow them some 'play' time during lesson without the need to obstruct the rest.

However, the pupils must understand that they need to put in effort in order to get these incentives. There are conditions and rules attached to every incentive.

• Redeemable Coupons
  The redeemable coupons are given to the pupils whenever they get 3 stars in one single worksheet (both Mathematics & English). The coupons are redeemable at any time during class.
  
• Tokens
  And as for Spelling, for every 5 stickers they received in the book, a small token will be awarded to them. The tokens are also used to reward them during group work and other activities.
  
• Certificates
  Certificates are also given out termly for Best Speller, Exemplary Pupil and so on.

At the present moment after many years working with the lower primary pupils, I believed that the the pupils find such incentives rewarding and look forward to working hard and receiving it. And as parents, I really hope you will continue to motivate and praise them for their all their efforts till to date.
