For whole classes for first through fifth grade:

Each class begins the day with the letters BRAVO! If they keep the whole word spelled out for all of music, then they earn 5 minutes of game time at the end of class. The games that students choose to play at the end of class are always music games that they have learned previously in music class.

If I have to remind the class of any of the classroom rules, then they lose one of the letters. If I have to keep reminding the class of the expectations, then they will continue losing letters. If at least one letter is gone by the end of class, then they do not earn game time that day.

If there are individual students who had to sit out of activities on that day, then they also lose game time at the end of class.
