These resources aim to encourage teachers, parents or carers and children to work in partnership in setting appropriate targets which will promote positive attitudes to learning and behaviour within the classroom and school context.

Children are encouraged to see themselves as learners in a positive way, enhancing their self-image and in turn affecting their learning and behaviour.

The resources can be used to reinforce positive learning patterns and behaviour in all children, but they are particularly useful for work with children who exhibit learning and emotional and behavioural difficulties.

There are facilitator notes on how to use the 12 sections, which include:

• target book covers

• daily reward sheets

• weekly reward sheets

• playtime reward charts

• reward charts for home and school.
