Young people want to collect baubles, beads and charms for their key chains, bracelets, necklaces and backpacks. School personnel want to help their pupils improve their behaviors in school and/or other endeavors. BenchMARKS allow these two “wants” or desires to work together. Here’s how: BenchMARKS help young people achieve state-mandated content standards and benchmarks, and help you and your school with school reform efforts.

Each BenchMARK is a single number (0 through 12). The different numbers allow you to set awards for specific steps of achievement and young people know exactly where they are in the learning progression.

BenchMARKS are also the perfect compliment to teaching children their times tables. Provide incremental awards to keep kids motivated!

BenchMARKS are available in 5 colors – blue, green, red, violet and yellow. Varying colors allow you to use awards in several different areas or subjects.

Mathematics - Blue
Language Arts - Red
Physical Education - Yellow
Social Studies - Violet
Science - Green
