I team teach too, but I only teach with 1 other person. My partner and I do have the same discipline plan (same rules and consequences and management strategy). I don't know how I'd do it without the consistency. Is science the only subject you team with?Ashleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08564789501297137958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6230712787840994574.post-70854409943152221282011-07-12T02:18:34.250-07:002011-07-12T02:18:34.250-07:00Hi there!

I originally thought this would never work...but I was amazed at how well it actually does! I carried tickets around in my pocket all of the time. I just used the carnival type tickets that you can get from walmart. I also started pulling out tickets throughout the week - these weren't for prizes but were for special privileges (take shoes off, computer time, no homework pass). If I pulled a student and they were off task, they missed out (this really encouraged good behavior all of the time). All tickets went back into the bucket so they still had a chance to win. I used a miniature crate to collect my tickets. I was thinking - you could have 4 different colored crates for each class to keep the classes separate. Then on Fridays pull one ticket out from each box. It would only cost you 4 prizes a week. Good luck!<br />-Audrey<br /><a href="http://mrsestblog.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Sweet Life of Third Grade</a>Mrs. Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00569914423901353951noreply@blogger.com
