Besides using positive phrases when children exhibit desired behavior I have paper stars on a bulletin board that say a positive thing that a child has done above and beyond for a classmate, teacher, or classroom. The children get to take another star home with the good behavior on it as well.

Verbally praise children who are helping to clean up after work or meal times. Use stickers or badges for good deeds and behaviors.

We use a sticker chart for a few of our children who have a really hard time making good choices. When they get picked up, if they've made good choices throughout the day, they earn a sticker and after they earn 5 they get to pick out of a prize box. It's a great motivator and reminder for the kids to work towards throughout the day.

I work with toddlers who like to climb on the tables. Instead of yelling I can acknowledge the one's who are showing good behavior and ask them in a gentle tone to get done. Once the show that they can listen giving a smile or a high five would reinforce the behavior.

I use positive reinforcement in my daycare by giving high fives, stickers and some times giving the kiddos extra choices for making good choices!

The most common positive reinforcement is to smile and say thank-you then acknowledge the behavior. For example "Thank you Johnny for raising your hand, I can tell you have something important to tell me!" or "Thank you Johnny, you put all the blocks back in the box! What a great job taking care of our toys!"

Our lego area is VERY popular! When we notice a child or children sit nicely through circle time they get first choice of the area they want to play in!

I have a chart in my classroom for potty-trainers. When we ask the child if she or he has to go and they do they get to choose a sticker for they're chart and put it on themselves.

I really enjoy the idea of using tokens for positive reinforcement in the classroom. My daughter gets a token after she lets the dentist looks at her teeth. The token is then used to go get a prize, some sort of small toy out of a coin machine. I have seen this idea of positive reinforcement before in a classroom and the children love it.

Our preschool classroom uses a sticker chart. We use positive words of affirmation with all the children as well ("I really liked how you shared with your friend," "wow, you used the potty by yourself!" etc)

Smile or give high fives when a kid is cooperative in clean up time. When they show a picture comment on a thing they did in the picture and ask if they like it. When they respond that they do be excited with them.

If a child performs all of their work, we allow them to play games during lunch. This increases their desire to work well and efficiently

Smiling and nodding to kids as they come to circle time gives them positive reinforcement that they are noticed and an important part of our community. Commenting positively on what they are working on shows the teacher cares about their work.

I smile and comment on good behavior especially with the children who are the most challenging. I reinforce the good behavior as much as possible. I acknowledge each child in the classroom several times.

We use sticker charts and Cloths pin boards were you move up or down depending on your cations. These seem to work very well with particular age groups

Positive Reinforcement within the classroom usually comes in the form of high fives, fist bumps, and hugs. When a child successfully cleans up after themselves following a meal and prepares to wash hands, I would let them know how great they are doing and give them a high five or fist bump with some soap.

I often use positive reinforcement to gain the attention of the other students. For example, if the class is a bit too chatty, I compliment the one student who is following directions and the rest of the class wants that praise too, so they quiet down. Then I can thank them for making a good choice.

Transitions are the times when a lot of undesired behavior occurs. Instead of focusing on the child who is creating a bigger mess during a cleanup, we could instead praise the ones that are helping put things away and offer an incentive for finishing the task. The incentives could be different e.g. being a special helper, getting to chose a book for morning circle time etc.

I use a lot of praise & attentions for reinforcement in the infant room. For example, if a baby sits down self, I will say "Yeah! You sit down by yourself!!!" and I will clap my hands & give a big smile to the baby.

I notice the behavior I want to curb and praise the opposite in the children who are making the right choices.

I will praise the child that is walking nicely in the house vs the child that is running in the house. The other children will notice my praise and then will seek it by correcting their behavior.

I love giving kids praise and also telling their parents of what good they did. I think its very important to also tell the parents of what the kids did and maybe the parent will also treat the kids. If they go above and beyond I will treat them to a prize from a prize box.

I love to be positive when I interact with my Kidos. I promote good behavior by being positive, understanding, high fives, great job, hand out stickers and I encourage them to make good choices.
