At my school I currently teach science to grades 3-5 and I have implemented a new rewards system called "Science Bucks". Students can earn Science Bucks by going above and beyond! This looks like great partner work, advocating for themselves and asking questions, turning in work that reflects their best effort, and shining as science superstars! As students earn these Science Bucks they can purchase a variety of prizes and earn special privileges. These Science Bucks allow kids to learn to manage money, be responsible, and it motivates them to do their best.
