Back to School Tutor’s tips
Is it hard to keep your elementary student interested in their math?
A “sure win” every time is the sticker chart!
YOU’RE deciding how many stickers are going into the chart.
It’s a great helper for the hard to motivate math wiz that hates to write.
He gets to choose a preferred activity once his sticker chart is full.
The 6 year old boy that I tutor LOVES Science and HATES English.
Nothing I said would inspire him to pick up a pencil so I pulled out my sticker chart.
Now he’s motivated to stay on task and complete his writing assignments
For example:
Forming Uppercase and Lowercase Letters
earns him a sticker. Twenty stickers gets him a science experiment, like The Shiny Penny.
When nothing else works to get your elementary school student motivated to learn, the sticker chart is a sure-fire way to go!
