Ketchup and Relish

As a guest teacher, I got the rare privilege of teaching in the same classroom two days in a row. Back in the 7th grade science class, our lunch period was switched with 6th grade's lunch and this was where I got today's great idea for teaching. The 6th grade needed more time in the morning for "Ketchup and Relish Day." It is two weeks before the end of the trimester. Students who had all there homework for the trimester complete got to "relish" the day by watching a movie and eating popcorn. Students who had outstanding homework had to "ketchup." While I've seen variations of this played out many times, this version wins the prize for best name for the reward day. What a great way to motivate students!
