Ask the students
Surveys can be used to determine universal
rewards or can be used with individual students.
12
Universal reward system often does not work with
the yellow and red zone kids.
To be most effective, rewards must truly address
what motivates the student.
Try a Motivation Assessment Scale
13
Once you ascertain the possible motivation,
design a list of rewards that fit the motivation.
Allow student to choose from list.
This may also satisfy sensory need.

Assignment
1. Review the lists of individual incentives and
add to the list, if you want.
2. Using your colored highlighters, go through
your list of individual Incentives/Rewards and
mark the ones that are appropriate for each
motivation . You may find that some incentives
satisfy more than one need.
