*Draw lines in blue box to represent number of smiley faces needed to earn reward/motivator.
*Each smiley can represent an amount of time spent on a task or a number of task items completed. Example: They earn a smiley face for 5 minutes of on-task behavior. OR They earn a smiley face for each class completed using an indoor voice. OR They earn a smiley face for each worksheet/work based task completed.
