I use school money, they can earn money and also have to pay me money. On Friday we count the coins (a skill that they constantly need to practice) and then can buy coupons at a various prices. They use a checkbook register to record how much they have earned and spent.kanderson9189https://www.blogger.com/profile/15647386870112758583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136426809589191691.post-14231479654161903062018-07-20T00:27:06.429-05:002018-07-20T00:27:06.429-05:00Available data show that future changes in global ...Available data show that future changes in global change drivers may lead to an increasing impact of fires on terrestrial ecosystems worldwide. Yet, fire regime changes in highly humanised fire-prone regions are difficult to predict because fire effects may be heavily mediated by human activities We investigated the role of fire suppression strategies in synergy with climate change on the resulting fire regimes in Catalonia (north-eastern Spain). We used a spatially-explicit fire-succession model at the landscape level to test whether the use of different firefighting opportunities related to observed reductions in fire spread rates and effective fire sizes, and hence changes in the fire regime.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.vifsm.com/courses" rel="nofollow">Fireman Diploma Courses</a> | <a href="http://www.vifsm.com" rel="nofollow">Fire Safety Course UP</a><br />Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06739271917810490316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136426809589191691.post-61854599138986895622018-06-25T21:09:18.197-05:002018-06-25T21:09:18.197-05:00Hi Thank you!

And like the person above, I am also wondering when do you give them out? Do you have them in your pocket? Do they all start out with the same amount of fuzzies at the beginning of the day or week or they have to earn them? Thanks!!!

My classroom theme is monsters and I'm thinking of calling them big/little monsters instead of fuzzies! But I also like the fuzzy name so who knows what I"ll do! (Opinion??). 2 questions for you if you'll entertain me: 1) How are fuzzies given out procedurally? Can students get their own fuzzies? Anytime? At the end of blocks? On that note: Do you carry fuzzies with you? It sounds like you said you can drop them off but that seems like a lot to carry around! 2) How many fuzzies fit in the little paint container? How often are they emptied? THANK YOU SO MUCH for your help and creativity!

I wish I knew about it last year when I had the most challenging class from my entire teaching career. I LOVE how your system really emphasizes and rewards the students who make good choices, and also the wide variety of rewards that they can chose from. Thank you for sharing!

I changed how I managed my classroom so many times just this first year! I also started with the red, yellow, green card system but hated how the constant greens weren't rewarded and the reds were indirectly called out for all of their peers to see. My favorite/most effective decision was creating doggone good slips that were similar to your Warm Fuzzies! 5 slips got them to the treasure chest- that worked great, but was expensive. I loved that everyone had the opportunity to be noticed for positive behavior and the kids that were constantly showing great behavior were constantly receiving awards! I love how this plan takes everything one step further and is so organized and colorful! I would love to start this up in my classroom next year and will be looking into these bundles :) Thanks so much for making management FUN for the kids AND the teacher!!

I LOVE this and I cannot wait to see what I can do with the fuzzies. The past two years have been boring ole' blue tickets, but I can assume that this is so much more awesome for the kids. I'm fed up with spending money at the dollar store and target for random things that the children will break or eat immediately! Just one question, if the paint jars are too expensive (my classroom things are mostly out of pocket this year), do you have any other suggestions or something that may be slightly cheaper?!

I'm about to begin my second year of teaching and LOVED this idea for incentives. I began in the middle of last year so didn't have time to come up with my own system & just continued with the treasure box (not a big fan), but this seems like such an effective system!<br /><br />I teach 4th grade, and I was wondering in your opinion, would you recommend your #1 or #2 set of coupons for that age group?

I have tried everything short of morphing into Medusa and scaring them into compliance. So off I go to Google hoping to locate any tiny morsel of a solution that might bring back my sanity. After reading educated and unrealistic articles that only tell me what I already know - that my kids won't shut up and the possible (obvious) logic behind it - I find this ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT blog post!

The students can earn tickets in 2 possible ways - positive behaviour or from completing their daily math homework calendar. I love all of your coupons (and the adorable graphics)! I have been contacting local businesses for some of our "big-ticket" items. For example, the Leisure Centre donated Free Swim passes, the Bowling Alley donated coupons for a free round, and our Dairy Queen is donating treats as well! I also plan on having Subway lunch dates as a reward. Some students just really want our time. :) <br /><br />I would love, love, love to be a winner of your coupon bundle! Fingers crossed and thanks for sharing. xo <br /><br />lp,stelladot@gmail.comDisney Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13771200855699107790noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7136426809589191691.post-3022381093643873502015-08-15T20:00:26.859-05:002015-08-15T20:00:26.859-05:00I've been using your system going on 3 years a...I've been using your system going on 3 years and it's amazing.
