Bathroom Bucks Restroom Tracking

These bathroom bucks are a great way to keep track of students when they leave class to use the restroom! I give students 5 bathroom bucks at the beginning of each year. Students write their names on the back of each buck. We take 2 whole class "free" bathroom breaks daily, and students can spend their bucks for any other times when they need to go.
