Schenectady, NY.Yates Arts-in-Education Magnet School (urban elementary school) .Grade 4.Teacher's desk and bulletin board posted with rules and reinforcement aids. Teacher keeps track of points earned for good behavior and completed work for each student on bulletin board. This positive reward system allows students to earn prizes and is used in conjunction with the traditional negative consequences system for poor behavior and uncompleted work to create a secure, fair, self-esteem-building atmosphere in this sometimes tough urban school..©Ellen B.
