Nine-tenths of Education is Encouragement
RECOGNIZE AND REINFORCE
Make a big deal of the small things.
* Like Marisol getting an 83 on her test or Justin turning in an assignment.
Start reinforcing the work it takes to be successful.
* Personalization and specificity allows you to shape the behavior.
Benefits
* Recognition provides students with motivation to continue pursuing academic success.
* Reinforcing the work builds habits which allows for improvement in student performance.
“Compliments and encouragement go a long way towards making children feel good. Descriptive praise, where you tell the child exactly what it is that you like, works best of all. On top of that, praising children when they’re behaving well is likely to make them want to keep behaving well.” Raising Children Network (Australia) Limited
