3. How is the preschool reward system different?
Preschool teachers use color coded dollars to monitor dollars being given in different locations – hall, lunchroom, restroom.
Students may purchase tangible prizes for $5, $10, and $20.
Classroom teachers keep prizes in classroom and have store weekly.

5. Testimonials

6. “DREAM dollars have given students extra incentive to follow our schools expectations. In the hall and restrooms students are extra quiet because they know at any time they could be given a DREAM dollar. The bank makes them feel like grown-ups because they have to fill out deposit slips and get receipts”

7. “DREAM BUCKS WORK! Instead of pointing out the bad behaviors, we are focusing on the good! It not only makes the students feel rewarded but it rewards me too! I am taking a positive action to improve our schools behavior.”
Mackenzie
Melissa Jones, Curriculum Teacher

8. “I think the DREAM dollars are a wonderful way to reward our students for “doing the right thing” It really seems to be making a difference with our students’ behavior outside of the classroom setting.”
Ashton
LaVonna Tarry, Principal

9. I really like the DREAM dollars and DREAM rules because if they follow the rules, even if the teacher isn’t looking, they might get a DREAM dollar. And because they’ve been [such] good, they have rewards and they cost some amount of DREAM dollars and the rewards say, “Good job!” You get rewarded for being good.
