Are you supposed to give a point to students every time they respond well on the Class-Yes? I'm trying to phase out of points for every Class-Yes (after a week), and they are not happy!

Tell them they are more advanced now. Definitely phase out awarding for Class-Yes.

Tell them you will be watching a lot of other things that will give them a chance to get points. Maybe once in a while if they do it really well, or absolutely in unison you could give them a point now and again.

That "next level" incentive works wonders. Kids want to feel they are advanced and you can even add in that with previous classes they were never ready for that next level this early in the year!

As we are coming to this time of year when it seems like nothing will work to motivate, you are going to find ways to get them excited. Thanks to the scoreboard game this is easy to do. You bounce them back and forth and give them 's for the simplest things. Do this quickly several times in 5 minutes and the energy and engagement will be back. I know it sounds not likely, but it works.

Power to the Teacher
