Reward Chart + Oscars to laminate for class motivation and rewards! Awesome tool for English/Drama

(0)
For any English activity or drama activity, for example after debates, presentations, group work, and poster activities I award my learners with an Oscar. I use three categories each month and one group Oscar prize, one individual prize and another individual prize(for progress). So every student has a chance to win an award each month. The students get so excited at the Oscar concept, as it is something they know and can relate to. Instructions Photocopy the Oscars and laminate them, you can use the chart across the whole year if you just edit the dates on the document, the one here starts from Sept to Dec, simply enlarge the chart or decrease the Oscars so they fit in the chart. At the end of the month the learners of the categories will get a prize. A movie, sweets or whatever your school policy is usually motivates the students. Hang it on your classroom wall, it will get the students excited! Something visual that is always there is a great motivating tool.

Helps with basic literacy, this is a card that students can write to express gratitude and thanks to their favourite teacher. They can improve their ability to justify their choices and use the conjunction because to develop their use of connectives. This helps build a nice whole school approach, it enables learners to move around the school, be creative and enhance their personal and social skills. It is also a great task for EAL/ or primary school English learners.

Students act as teachers and identify the mistakes throughout the health blog, this reinforces their ability to recognize errors and correct in pairs. At the end they can make a video in groups based on the text. A great interactive activity!
