** A word of caution with praise.  Praise is a great way to build motivation in students and continue to foster self-efficacy too.  When you praise a student, be specific in what you are praising and let the child know exactly what you are praising.

"Tony, good job on raising your hand and waiting for me to call on you. This showed me you knew the answer and wanted to share it with the class."

"Cassandra, I liked how you have handed in all of your assignments this quarter on time. This tells me you are paying attention to when assignments are due and you want to do your best on them!"
