All the children in our school is instructed to keep within the school rules so that they know what is expected of them . After registration the teacher explains the school rules to them, the teacher explains that they are not allowed to run in the corridors, they have to use their inside voices, to follow instructions and to keep their hands and feet to themselves and also to hold the door open for people behind them and to treat one another with respect.
The class teacher then goes on to explain about the reward system which has been carried out.
In the classroom the teacher gives the children a diddy dot card, this means that everytime the children shows good behaviour or they do some good work or are generally helpful they get a diddy dot sticker to stick in their card, they have to fill 2 diddy dot cards which they then take to the Headmistress for a Golden Ticket. When the children achieve a Golden Ticket they have a photo taken where the children are instructed to put it on The Golden Ticket Board.
Their is one Golden Ticket Board placed in the ks1 hall for the ks1 children and another placed in the ks2 hall for the ks2 children.
In the ks1 and ks2 hall is a yellow diamond, this shows each stage you need to build up to, to get your rewards for example; Non verbal and verbal praise, smiles, nods, thumbs up etc. Individual Rewards (diddy dots) and Whole Class .
The Red Diamond is for children not following the golden rules and therefore must suffer the consequences.
For serious actions/unprovoked attack on staff/children, leaving school premises, blue card to DHT/AHT or red card HT. (I have a photocopy of this as part of my evidence). This encourages the children to work hard as they move from year to year throughout the school and therefore understands that good behaviour is rewarded and bad behaviour is not tolerated. Once the children have finished their lunch they have to line up in the Dinner Hall, when I have enough Children to take outside I remind them of what they should do.
Make sure they go to the toilet and wash their hands before going outside, make sure they put their coats on (depending on the weather ) reminding them of playground rules which is no fighting or using the equipment as weapons as this is not permitted in school. I then ask the children who is on toy duty so they can decide on what equipment they would like to play with , this encourages the children to make decisions at an early age and helps them to grow up independantly and shows them they can make choices and it will also boost their self esteem.
I observe the children and interact with them, ‘the children love skipping’ so I generally twined the skipping rope for them, ( all the time I’m twinding I am constantly focusing on the playground ) we all sing a song which goes like this ‘Cinderella dressed in yellow went to the ball and kissed a fella how many kisses did she get, we then have to count until they stop skipping, this song has been going for over four years.
I always say ‘wow that was fantastic skipping well done’, it doesn’t matter if someone does 2 skips or a 100 I treat each and everyone of them the same to see their little faces light up when they get praised is the best feeling ever. Some of the children play football but they do need to be watched closely as you can guarantee there is always someone not willingly to play by the rules, if this happens I gather the children round and ask them what the problem is, if I am satisfied with the answer then I don’t take it any further and remind them about positive behaviour in the playground.
If however I am not satisfied, then I give them a warning and tell them if they don’t play by the rules then I am going to have to confiscate the ball for the rest of the playtime, I get a few moans and groans but it seems to do the trick . Children need discipline so they can understand the consequences of their actions if they aren’t following the olden rules and also stops them from repeating the behaviour, this is the reason why Adults give children warnings that way it helps them make the right choices. At the end of play I blow my whistle once, the children know they have to stand still and wait for further instructions, which is ‘can I have all the equipment put away please’.
Once this has been done the children line up, I then tell them because I have had some really good positive behaviour this lunchtime I am going to choose 4 people to come and stand at the front with me and play a game (the children love doing this ) what we do is we put our hands on our head (supervisors included ) we have to touch our toes, jump up and down etc, this keeps the children occupied and stops them from pushing each other in the line until they are collected by their teachers .
Playing this game is an excellent way to develop the childrens Gross Motor Skills, this helps with the childrens arms, legs and feet coordination, their is also running and jumping games and skipping that help with their coordination aswell. If our children behave in a positive way at the end of playtime we give a slip to the children to give to their teacher, this then tells the teacher the children have followed the golden rules and therefore they deserve a diddy dot sticker for their card. It is part of my school policy to ‘notice good behaviour’ and reward, this can be for good behaviour or for been generally helpful.
Children work on positive response and from a young age they aim to please, this is ‘operant conditioning. Children will follow guidelines better if their are incentives in place like a reward system this will keep the children focused knowing their is a reward for them at the end of the process in fact, this is a good idea as the children will work hard to get as many rewards as possible, this will in turn set them up for adulthood knowing that their is guidelines to adhere to as they have been taught throughout their schooling.
How would the children feel if say, they had rewards for awhile and then one day the rewards dwindled out? or if on the otherhand their is no reward system in place, how does this influence the children to continue working hard and adhere to the school rules, what are they going to get from it? Would this still encourage the children to continue achieving? Personally I would like to think it wouldn’t make a difference to the children, if they can work hard with rewards then it shouldn’t be a problem achieving without a reward system in place, they should feel proud of their achievments with or without rewards.
Positive behaviour benefits the children as you can build up a better relationship with them and is also another way to help build up their self esteem. It is very important in the role i play to be able to communicate positively with the children, I have to show i am approachable, I do this by always having a smile on my face and talking and interacting with the children, they look up to me for guidance I have to show them the right mannerism, their is no point stood in the playground constantly shouting at them, show them some respect and they will in turn show you some respect back.
I like to involve them in decision making (by letting them choose equipment they would like to play with) this makes them feel more engaged and motivated with the games they choose to play, the imagination of the children when they play their games is unbelievable, I love listening to them from deciding what they are going to play, to how they are going to play to who is going to do what.
If one of the children needs to discuss a matter with me I make sure they have my full attention, I do this by coming down to their level, maintaining eye contact at all times and a smile on my face this shows the child I am interested in what they have to say.
