Fun Online ESL Rewards for older boys keep students engaged and learning, and they can provide positive reinforcement for good behavior in class: a double whammy! Here are some fun online rewards for ESL classrooms for older boys.
The Best Online Classroom Rewards for Older Boys
- Play *ultimate* tic-tac-toe

- dots and boxes is a fun cool-down game for older boys. You can take a screenshot of a grid and pull it up on AWW App so you can both draw on the same grid. Each 5 boxes, tell the student they need to make up a new username in the chatbox. It is lots of fun, and students are often very creative. My recent student dubbed himself “a block of bread” and “mashed potatoes with fried carrots” at one point.

Why Use Reward Systems for Older Boys
Reward systems can keep older boys motivated to learn. Many online ESL Companies already include an online reward for students within the platform. Often, you award stars or thumbs up or praise within the class platform. Extrinsic motivators like a fun reward or game can eventually make the student comfortable enough to become intrinsically motivated later, too.
