We have been using Class DoJo for a month or so now and have the feel for how it will be helpful in monitoring responsibility and student growth. Tuesday afternoon I took time with one of my violin classes to discuss some possible rewards and this is what we came up with. If this system seems too steep we can relax the points a bit beginning in March.
Points will be refreshed Sunday, February 4, 2018 so we can begin our new reward program.
Class Dojo Points beginning February 5, 2018
4 week points
32 – pick 3 things from the gift box
20 – pick 2 things from the gift box
12 – pick 1 things from the gift box
If each student in a class earns 32 points the class will be rewarded with a snack/treat as well as 3 gifts from the gift box.
If each student in a class earns 32 points or more in each 4 week period that whole class will earn a party at the end of the school year.
32 points = per week: on time, with instrument and book, turn in a filled out practice journal, pass on one pin song, post a performance video on class dojo or google classroom (or pass on 2 pin songs or post 3 performance videos)
20 points = per week: on time, with instrument and book, turn in a filled out practice journal (or, if no journal is turned in, post 3 performance videos or pass 2 pin songs)
12 points = per week: on time, with instrument and book, pass a pin song or post 2 performance songs
