Educating the next generation is an incredibly important task, and our team at Triangle Treasure Toys wants to help teachers do so effectively. To support our teachers, we offer a range of educational rewards and prizes with which to motivate students and encourage good behavior. In this article, we’ll go over three benefits of using educational rewards in order to convince you to give them a try in your classroom.
- Motivation- One benefit of using educational rewards is that they motivate students to try harder in the hopes of earning them. Children aren’t yet able to appreciate the long-term, abstract rewards of a good education, such as better reasoning skills and improved job prospects, but they can definitely appreciate a fun prize and will work to earn one for themselves.
- Good Behavior- Another benefit of educational rewards is that they are a great way to encourage good classroom behavior. Children may have a hard time remembering to use their inside voices, clean up after themselves, raise their hands, or follow many of the other rules of appropriate school conduct, but when a prize is on the line, they will be more likely to pay attention to and follow those rules.
- Confidence- Using educational rewards is also a great way to boost your students’ confidence. They will have a tangible reminder of their academic achievements and progress, which encourages feelings of pride and increases self-esteem. They will also be excited to try for more prizes in the future, providing more motivation to learn.
