Credit Card
By luvnjesus

Clip to ScrapBook   
I gave each student a colored index card and had them decorate it and label it "Credit Card". Each student had a library pocket (one of the cutesy ones) attached to their desk with clear contact paper. This is where they
were to keep their "credit card" so that I could walk over to their desk at anytime and give them a "credit" without them having to find their card in their desk. I got some of the decorative hole punchers (like those used for scrapbooking) and punched their card for appropriate behavior, doing their job, etc. On Fridays, I would get the prize boxes down. I had a 10, 15, and 20 box.
The students would choose how many "credits" (aka punches) they wanted to turn in and "buy" a prize. I would just snip off the right number of punches. No change required...Very easy!
