Recognition needs to include both extrinsic and intrinsic values. As a child moves through the years, it is necessary to develop more intrinsic values in the tasks he or she undertakes. Therefore, children should be recognized with less extrinsic motivation and develop more internal satisfaction for their efforts for a job well done. Our goal is to eliminate extrinsic rewards and to provide students with educational experiences that will lead to intrinsic awareness of success. Verbal praise is a powerful method of rewarding appropriate behavior.
Success leads to future success.
