We introduced a school wide campaign to teach and reinforce the values of respect and to use the Golden Rule. Students are awarded a feather (our school mascot is a cardinal) by staff members when they are seen demonstrating actions that exemplify these values. The Principal challenged the students to earn 1,000 feathers as a school for a celebration.

Cardinal Pride Feather Scoreboard
I created this "scoreboard" in one of the main halls to keep track of the totals each week. The score is also displayed with a "Feather Meter" using base-ten blocks because our school uses Everyday Math. A die-cut cardinal has the new total and moves each week to reflect the amount of feathers earned. This is a good visual math tool to help everyone keep track of our school's progress.
