Most schools in the LiveSchool Community choose to do a House Cup, which lasts the entire school year, and then shorter competitions which typically last a month or quarter.
A House Celebration is the reward for the shorter competition. As I mentioned before, these don’t have to be extravagant events, but they do need to be motivating for your students.
Below are some suggestions from the LiveSchool Community that would work for any grade level.

Whether you’re a Kindergartener or a Senior in High School, everyone loves free time! On the playground or in a classroom, allowing students to choose how they spend their extra free time is always a crowd-pleaser.
We suggest highlighting that the House that wins this prize will get to have free time while everyone else is still in class, making this a true motivator!
We have more details about utilizing extra recess time as an incentive in our Rewards that Rock Database here.
Kick your ice cream social up a notch and make root beer floats. You could have different types of root beer or even change up the types of soda for an added twist! I guarantee you’ll have students mixing every type of soda they can. 😎
A tried and true reward that students always enjoy…I mean, it’s pizza, what’s not to enjoy? We suggest hosting the pizza party in a specific room to continue having students cultivate relationships within their House.
Because who doesn’t love to wear pajamas to school? The House that wins this reward will love showing off their PJs with their Housemates!
