This is a Publisher file that can be customized to print and use as classroom currency. I usually print 6-10 per 8 1/2 x 11 sheet. I initial the authorized by section on the original before printing and then fill in the students' names by hand as a circulate and pass them out. It has worked extremely well to keep students on task and reward good behavior. Students then "pay" with the same currency for late work, bathroom visits, and etc. There is a menu available in my store as well for free if you need ideas. You can also replace the "1" clip art with other denominations if you'd like to. I use 3's and 5's very rarely but they're nice to have on hand for larger rewards. It's a great way to teach kids finance, interpersonal and study skills in addition to regular curriculum.
