How to improve your child´s behaviour at home using GRAPHS, STICKERS or POINTS.
The Graphs are a means of reinforcing specific types of behaviour and in order to do this we can use stickers or points.
1. You can choose 3 types of behaviour to focus on, they should be obvious and always formulated positively. For example don´t say to your child, behave yourself, be good, be quiet, instead try and get them to do something positively, for instance, dress yourself, tidy up your toys, fasten your seat belt in the car…..
2.You should inform your child that you will give him or her points or a sticker every time they behave correctly, and these should be given as soon as possible so that your child sees this as a prize.
3. Points or stickers should never be removed or taken away from the child for bad or inappropriate behaviour, in this case different measures should be taken.
4. When the graph has been completed you may want to consider giving a treat to your child, this could be something that you have previously agreed with him or her.
