Token Economy Classroom

A token economy classroom is based on shaping the behavior of your students by rewarding the desired behavior. As a teacher, you can reward them with stickers, extra points, check marks, and so on. As a teacher, you must find a way to reward them once they have achieved a certain amount of “tokens.” There must also be a list of behaviors and rewards. There is no punishment for not completing the task, only rewards for completing the task. An example of this would be using Accelerated Reader Points. The teacher could set a certain amount of points per books read, and the students who complete the task could be rewarded with a pizza party at the end of the six weeks.
