Caught Being Good Awards are an incentive for your students to be‘Caught Being Good’! They sit well alongside awards you may alreadyhave in place at your school.The ‘Caught Being Good’ Awards are a tool for teachers and principals to rewardstudents who are ‘Caught Being Good’ reading, being thoughtful, doing theirhomework – whatever positive reason that you choose for this award.Each student you choose receives a book with a Duffy Book Label (to be affixedinside the front cover by you) and a Caught Being Good certificate.The number of Caught Being Good books you receive is based on a ratio of onebook per thirty students per week (rounded up to one/week for schools with less thanthirty students).You receive two distributions of CBG Books and certificates over the school year.CBG Books will arrive at the start of Term One and the start of Term Three.CBG Certificates and sticky labels will arrive separately in the second or third weeksof Term One and Term Three.Remember that all your Duffy Book Labels (for Book Offers One and Threeand Caught Being Good books) arrive twice yearly with your CBG certificates,directly from our printer. Please keep them in a safe place.April, 2008
Ideas for running Caught Being GoodKeep CBG fresh in your school by trying different ideas• Charge each teacher with awarding two or three children in their class eachweek or fortnight a CBG nomination. Nominations can go into a CBG box andwinners can be drawn out by the principal at assembly.• Create a special ‘CBG Box’ – make it bright and colourful or use somethingfun and unusual like a gumboot or an old letterbox decorated up! Make sureyou display it in the office and bring it along to all your Duffy assemblies.• Award children for cumulative good behaviour:• Create a sheet for each child with twelve squares on it.• Make up Caught Being Good ‘tickets’ for teachers to give to students theyspot being good – have a space so teachers can write in the reason for theaward.• When the owner of the sheet is awarded a CBG slip they can stick it ontotheir sheet.• When all twelve squares are full they receive a CBG certificate and choosea book. Plus they get to take home their CBG sheet with all the wonderfulcomments!• Alternatively, use stickers or stamps instead of CBG slips.• Mansell Senior School in Auckland created a two foot high Duffy character outof wood and paint. ‘Duffy’ holds a plaque which displays the CBG recipientseach week. The coordinator takes pictures of the winners to go on the plaquefor the week then at the end of the week transfers them to the ‘Hall of Fame’outside the school library where they are displayed for the rest of the year.• Make it a really big deal – CBG recipients could become ‘Role Models’ for twoweeks (or until your next awards assembly) and get to sit up the front withteachers at assemblies and enjoy other special privileges.• Get staff to nominate a couple of children each week/fortnight for the CBGaward who then get to have morning tea with the Principal and choose theirCBG book.• Draw the recipients out of a hat at assemblies. You could make it reallyglamorous and use numbered ping-pong balls in a velvet bag like they do atHillcrest School!• Choose a different focus for CBG each term. For example focus on goodbehaviour in the playground one term, then focus on good effort in reading forthe next term. Keep it fresh by changing the focus regularly.• Recognise your CBG recipients in your school newsletter.April, 2008
