The Teacher and Students Celebrate Positive Outcomes

The Teacher and Students Celebrate Positive Outcomes

For positive motivation strategies to be effective, there must be a reward or incentive that is highly relevant for students. When students are involved in setting rewards, they are meaningful to students and students will work to achieve them. When students achieve a goal, the teacher genuinely celebrates alongside students creating a positive classroom culture.

How It Works  

• When a teacher and students achieve or surpass the standard in a single week, they celebrate in their classrooms and are celebrated across the school.  
• This creates a buoyant positive culture across the school that remains high, as success drives greater success. The school team becomes motivated to constantly learn.   
• Identifying student gains helps to maintain and replicate improvement, as success is a powerful motivator for achieving more success.   
• Teachers and students have their successes validated and their efforts acknowledged.   
• Teachers display examples of student work that meet or exceed expectations, promoting and praising the standard of work expected in the classroom, which makes learning rewarding.   
• Teachers celebrate with students when the lesson progression goals are met. Celebrating positive behaviour and hard work motivates students to achieve their targets.
