Every classroom must have hand-shakes to show that all are welcome, hugs to show how much you care, and hi-fives for high student achievement!

Love this!  This is a fabulous way to give some non-verbal praise and do a little behavior modification right in the middle of your instruction (another pinterest find) without losing a beat!
 
I tried to think of an easy way to store the cards, so that I wasn’t interrupting my instruction by shuffling/looking through the cards to use them…which by the way, defeats the entire purpose of the cards’ use.  So, I used velcro and adhered them onto a cookie sheet.  I just have the cookie sheet leaning up against my whiteboard in a spot that is easily accessible.
WALLAH…behavior modification at it’s finest!  The kids love receiving them.  If they get a positive praise card, once direct instruction is over, they are able to get up and go change their stick to purple (highest/best behavior- on our behavior scale).
