Another great resource like this to take a look at is this Food Reward Chat. What are reward charts?

If you found our reward charts for autistic children helpful, you might find our other behaviour support resources useful. Topics covered include:

Whilst marvelling at the night sky one evening, he realises the star is not quite as happy as he and so sets out to return it to its rightful home. You can also find lots more resources created specifically to support and empower children with SEND and their families in our dedicated category. How do I use a reward chart with my child? So what exactly is sonoluminescence? The short answer is as the name suggests: a release of light caused by sound. In [Justin]’s case, he used an ultrasonic transducer to set up a standing wave at the resonant frequency of a flask of water. A drop of water is used to entrain a small air bubble, which is held in a stable position in the flask in much the same way as styrofoam beads are in an acoustic levitator. Turn off the lights and you’ll see that the bubble glows with a ghostly blue light.Een ster van ver is een wondermooi geschreven verhaaltje (ideaal voor het slapengaan) over vriendschap, bijgestaan door prachtige, gedetailleerde, schattige illustraties. Ontroerend mooi en hartverwarmend. Een boek dat je na het uitlezen in je armen wil nemen om zo samen in slaap te vallen, op weg naar schitterende dromen. Full of warmth, this is a lovely story of siblings, friendship and doing what's right that is perfect for sharing just before sleep but too enjoyable to be restricted to bedtime reading only', Jillrbennett, Red Reading Hub - Samen met zijn zus probeert hij eerst uit te zoeken van wie ze kan zijn, als dat niet lukt beslist hij de ster te houden, in een potje. Samen beleven ze allerlei avonturen, tot dat hij merkt dat de ster triest is en zijn thuis mist… We applaud [Justin]’s determination to bring this project to a successful conclusion. It’s not unlike his dogged effort to make a cold plasma torch, or even his desktop radio telescope. Catherine Chapman’s designs – flowers, snow, carrots, russet leaves, and more – underpin the seasonal progression, once Tortoise has emerged from hibernation and we await the famous race.

One that I will be highly recommending to teachers and schools to share. Several schools that I visit utilise a praise system whereby pupils place a star in the jar for demonstrating positive behaviour and so this would definitely enhance and complement that practice. Reward charts for autistic children can help them to understand how their behaviour can have positive consequences or help them achieve simple aims.

It’s a dazzling delight that will truly shine on your bookshelf. Full of feeling, friendship and fulfilment brought to life and beautifully realised with the finest of writing and illustrations.’ Ebony Feare is a deliciously charismatic tortoise, languorous with an impressive range of reptilian faces and stances and a resonant singing voice. Stefan Stuart’s ever impatient hare, more boyish than leporine, makes for an appropriately lively contrast despite his weaker singing voice. In een ster van ver maken we kennis met een kleine schatzoeker en zijn grote zus. Het kleine broertje verzamelt dag in dag uit gevonden schatten (veertjes, steentjes,…) tot hij op een dag iets heel bijzonders vindt: een echte ster! Sarah Massini’s artwork glows with warmth and humour and perfectly captures the friendship between the two siblings in this warm-hearted bedtime book. Told from the perspective of the big sister, this is the perfect picture book for siblings to share and read together. The short text and warm tone is ideal for toddlers aged 2 years and up. Following the success of Pied Piper Theatre’s Burglar Billlast year, this new two hander for very young children follows a similar format. There is little dialogue in Hare and Tortoise, lots of physicality and gentle joking, a neat narrative shape and some catchy songs. And it all sits very happily in the Yvonne Arnaud’s child-friendly studio space.

When a little boy stumbles across a special star, he puts it in a jar and takes it on adventures. Together with his big sister, he takes his special treasure with him everywhere – to the cinema, to the swimming pool and even to the toilet! This had just a touch of silly, a little hint of sad parting, a friendly closing, and two engaging kids. That all worked for me. As soon as I opened this book and began to read, my eyes lit up and my heart warmed at the sight of these beautifully-drawn illustrations that help to really set itself apart from many of its contemporaries. This story is both preciously told in word and beautifully depicted in picture which combine to make it an absolute joy and pleasure to behold. Bringing plenty of warmth and light, it really does give us the little lift we all need!What causes the glow? Good question. According to [Justin], we just don’t know for sure what causes it, although the leading theory is that cavitation of the bubble causes the trapped gas to compress and heat violently, turning into a brief bit of plasma. But there are problems with that theory, which is one of the reasons he wanted to show just how easy the process can be – now that he’s shaken out the bugs with five years of effort. It wasn’t easy getting the transducers attached and the driver circuit properly tuned, but with little more than a signal generator, an audio amp, and a spool of magnet wire, you too can make your own “star in a jar.” If nothing else, [Justin Atkin] is persistent. How else do you explain a five-year quest to create sonoluminescence with simple tools? An exceedingly enchanting story that encapsulates both the awe and wonder of the stars, the night sky and of the unique bond between siblings . . . Incandescently, radiantly, resplendently brilliant! It's a dazzling delight that will truly shine on your bookshelf', Mr E, The Reader Teacher - This reward chart is easy to use at home and encourages positive behaviour from your child. Display the jar in a prominent position and cut out the stars. Each time your child does something really good, reward them with a star for the jar. The reward chart comes with coloured stars to use as they are and it also provides some blank stars for your child to colour in according to the reasons for receiving a star.
