Ideas for Specials good behavior incentives

by Rachael

Oct 8, 2015

Hello, My AP asked the Specials teachers to come up with an incentive for students to improve their behavior during specials. She suggested a monthly get-together with all the well behaved kids but I don't want to lose any time with any of my students. Any ideas? Thanks!
