Sunshine of the week reward system


It is a reward system that can be applied at home or at school. A kind of “Employee of the Week” but with children:) at school.
The child is the sun, for example he/she is in the sun all week. The idea behind it is that you give a child compliments that let a child shine with his/her good qualities.
Every week, one student in the group is central. The student receives all kinds of compliments on one day a week when he or she is in the sun. Often I put these students in the middle of the class {on the teacher stool} so that it feels really special. I always let the student choose who gives the compliments. I also want every student to receive eight compliments from eight different students.
All these compliments are written down and get a place on the sun of this student. The nice thing is that you can shape this sun in many ways. Below is an example of a sun, as it can be made. But you can also find fun ideas on Pinterest. When the sun is off, it will of course get a place in the classroom where it can be seen for the rest of the school year.
