Use these printable behavior management punch cards to keep track of your students' behaviors through positive reinforcement. Every time a child exhibits a desired behavior, you use a paper punch to make a hole in the card. When all of the holes in the card are punched, the child gets a reward.

School counselors or behavioral specialists can use these cards to help children work towards goals. They are also great for home use as rewards for doing chores, potty learning or finishing homework.

This set of punch cards has an "outer space" theme and includes ten unique cards.
