Dear Parents/Guardians,
To have a positive learning experience, I am asking for the
assistance of family members in the following class project.
When the student has met the goal of “5 fruits and/or vegetables” 6 out of 7
days, then Operant Conditioning Theory suggests a reward/reinforcer. I am
asking for family help in providing those rewards. Some suggestions (from
the class) are:
Helping to pay for gasoline
Letting the student use the car one evening
One on one time with a parent/guardian
Student’s Choice of a meal
Student’s Choice of restaurant if the family is eating out
Other ideas that may be specific and rewarding to your son/daughter
I appreciate your support in this project. It can be a great experience for the
whole family. I will be keeping track of my fruit and vegetable intake too.
At the end of three weeks, the student is to turn in the record sheets and a
one page paper on how the task went: was it easy?, do you think the new
behavior will continue?, Is this a good way to learn good habits?, etc.
