Help! I’m Sick of the Candy Culture at School
SHARE

As educators, we often find ourselves faced with challenges that test our values and beliefs. One such challenge is the use of candy as rewards in the classroom. While incentives can be effective in motivating students, the reliance on sugary treats can have negative consequences. “Fed Up With Sweet Deals” expressed concern about the overuse of candy rewards, citing the impact on student health and the development of intrinsic motivation.

It is essential to consider the long-term effects of a reward system based on candy. While it may provide immediate gratification, it can also create a dependency on external rewards and detract from the value of genuine self-discipline. As teachers, we have a responsibility to promote healthy habits and teach students the importance of intrinsic motivation.

If you find yourself in a similar situation, where you are the only teacher offering non-food rewards, there are steps you can take to push back against the candy culture. One approach is to model your own reward system and track the success of non-food incentives. By documenting your methods and their positive outcomes, you can showcase an alternative approach to motivating students.

Additionally, consider advocating for a change in the reward system at your school. You can request to lead professional development sessions to share your findings and research on intrinsic motivation. Building alliances with like-minded teachers can also help shift the culture away from candy rewards towards more meaningful incentives.

Ultimately, remember that you are making a difference, even if you are the only one offering non-food rewards. Your efforts to promote healthy habits and intrinsic motivation are valuable contributions to your students’ development. Stay committed to your principles and continue to advocate for a positive classroom environment.
