Spark Student Motivation: Compliments Galore!

Happy Saturday friends! I hope you had a wonderful week! Did you motivate a student, your class, a colleague? Please share with us! 
Let's motivate each other and our students!
To encourage my students to work together to earn compliments, I designed a simple chart to hold our compliments each time we receive one.
Each time another teacher compliments our class on our line, lunchroom behavior, special area, or anytime outside of our class, we get a sticker for our chart.
*Administrators count as two stickers. :O)
I let my class vote on the incentive they'll receive when they fill the sheet...these are the three ideas my class has on the table so far:
1. Popcorn party
2. Recess
3. Brownies
We have five left to earn our reward! (It's harder sometimes for intermediate students to receive compliments on their line, so I want to motivate them to be extra good so we can earn one).
You can start off small with only having to earn 10 compliments.
And build up to working for 30 compliments. 
Working together to achieve this goal promotes TEAMWORK! It takes the entire class working together to get noticed. 
Would you like a set of these Compliments Galore tracking sheets to MOTIVATE your students to display great behavior outside of your class?
 I hope you had a wonderful week! Please link up any lessons, ideas, tips, tricks, incentives, ANYTHING you do or plan to do to get your students motivated or excited!
