I just love it when students pick this. You are right. You can learn a lot about the students during these lunches.<br /><br />Have a great week!<br />Mary<br /><a href="http://www.fittobefourth.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Fit to be Fourth</a>Elementary Engagementhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03817170861027641053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3180264515207014189.post-55680805359781010222014-02-22T20:41:34.047-05:002014-02-22T20:41:34.047-05:00I wanted a no-cost reward system this year, so I i...I wanted a no-cost reward system this year, so I instituted Table Points and a Reward Lunch Fridays. Each of the tables in my four 5th & 6th grade classes earns points throughout the week for class preparedness, following directions, and general kind acts. On Friday, the winning table group from each class is invited (upstairs, as well) for lunch, where we watch funny YouTube videos and Looney Tunes. :)Sarah K.

This makes me want to eat lunch with a different group just because, and quit using it as a reward for good behavior.

I guess it was too much like school for some of them then. LOL! Hmm? A treat from McDonald's for a homework incentive???? I might have to try that or something similar. Thanks!<br /><br />AngelaThe Teacher's Desk 6https://www.blogger.com/profile/05040785972634369374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3180264515207014189.post-7285001754754178892014-02-22T16:55:07.113-05:002014-02-22T16:55:07.113-05:00Lunch Bunch is super motivating Angela!

I was also surprised at how many kids really wanted to earn this reward! I also have a homework club where students who complete at least 8 out of 9 weeks worth of homework, get lunch on me! (They usually like McDonald's). :) I really love your limits and might just have to "borrow" them.
