For art training schools, check-in activities can effectively bring parents and schools closer together. But in daily work, after each class, the teacher has to spend half a day notifying parents and checking homework. The operation is troublesome and a waste of time.


So, in order to save everyone's time and energy, here is a complete check-in process organized for everyone,



The two most important functions of art activity check-in are:


Inspector:


1. The check-in format of homework and activities helps children develop good habits (21 days of the same or multiple themes);

2. Automatic reminder, so that students will not forget to check in for homework, ensuring the continuity of learning and improving learning efficiency;

3. Teacher remote monitoring helps children maintain learning coherence and ensure learning effectiveness;

4. Targeted homework evaluation for children, "praise+correction", effectively maintaining children's learning enthusiasm;

5. Automatic statistics and tracking ensure that each student completes the check-in task.  


Spread:


1. As a communication group, parents have a very precise target audience (because their parents and friends are also of the same age as them, and their children are about the same size);

2. Real sharing will bring real referrals;

3. There are various ways to share, including social media circles, WeChat groups, and friends, all of which can serve as channels for dissemination;

4. There are various ways of dissemination, in addition to generating posters, you can also directly forward mini programs;

5. Retain all materials from the check-in activity, help children generate learning profiles, and encourage parents to showcase their children's growth to the outside world.


How to make children and parents interested in playing cards:


1.How to make children interested:


Set up rich clock in rewards, inform students of these reward rules, show them the prizes, and highlight the value of the rewards.



Points and medals are the most direct praise for them. Children are easy to deal with, and a medal can make them happy. Points can be exchanged for prizes, which can enhance children's motivation to clock in. Their joy in receiving the prize is definitely no less than our double performance bonus.


The principals must have conducted thorough research on such prizes, and I recommend a few: desk lamps, water bottles, skateboards, badminton rackets, pillows, dolls, Bluetooth speakers.


In addition to the material rewards mentioned above, there should also be spiritual rewards, and different awards should be set up, such as attendance award, progress award, individual excellence award, top three awards.


For children, every time they clock in, they get one step closer to the prize, and the goal of getting closer and closer encourages them to participate in the clock in seriously. Meanwhile, a child who actively clock in will also urge their parents to complete the clock in and share.


2. Make parents interested:


1) Set up a reward mechanism for parents:


To do a successful check-in activity, besides arousing children's interest, it is more important to also arouse parents' interest.


Speaking of which, I suddenly want to ask the principal an interesting question. Have parents ever been rewarded? (Certificates, prizes, and bonuses are all included)


In fact, parents, like children, also enjoy encouragement and praise. Treating parents as children, praising and rewarding them can also stimulate their enthusiasm.


In addition to material rewards such as coupons, discount coupons, classic books, and exquisite picture books, parents can also receive spiritual rewards. According to different check-in results, different awards are set up: Active Participation Award, Attendance Award, Best Assistance Award, and Best Parent Award.  



I guarantee that if you let the parents receive the award on stage, they will be so happy that they won't be able to keep their mouths shut.


2) Show parents the value of clock in activities:


Rewards are just one aspect, the most important thing is to show parents the value of the check-in activity. Everyone knows that parents do everything for their children. If the check-in activity cannot directly show parents the benefits given to their children, even if the certificates are exquisite and the prizes are tempting, parents will not participate.  


For example, 21 days can help children develop a good habit; Maintain coherence in learning and help children improve their learning efficiency; Timely feedback from teachers and "correction+praise" can help children discover their own problems in a timely manner, actively correct them, and maintain their learning enthusiasm.


Visible value is what motivates parents to actively encourage their children to clock in and participate in clock in activities.


3) The activity process design is simple:


The process is too complicated, and parents find it troublesome. I can't even understand the rules, how can parents play a role in supervising their children and uploading check-in assignments.



Parents only need to follow the teacher's instructions to complete the check-in activity. Sharing copywriting and posters on social media, with the help of teachers, can make parents only focus on hands-on activities and avoid using their brains.  


The activity process is simple in order to facilitate parents' participation.


3. What types of check-in activities are there:


1) Types of check-in activities:


A、 21 day clock in: In behavioral psychology, a person's actions or thoughts become habitual if repeated for 21 days. Maintaining it for 21 days can help children develop better habits;

B、 Seasonal clock in: Taking spring as an example, use clock in to record spring;

C、 Holiday check-in: Taking May Day as an example, a check-in activity for helping mothers complete a household chore every day has been carried out since early April until Labor Day;

D、 Long term check-in activity: that is, after each class, upload homework, and this check-in activity is effective throughout the entire semester.  


Of course, as your thoughtful little one, I have also prepared some themes that schools can directly use.


Take these themes as examples to do your own check-in activities.


Fine Arts

1) Record the beauty around you: use a paintbrush to capture interesting things in life;

2) My happy life: Life is inherently worth recording;

3) Festival theme: Create a work with Qingming Festival as the theme.


Dance category

1) Make a little progress every day: perform a small dance move every day;

2) Review and consolidation: Dance, if you don't practice for a day, you know it yourself, and if you don't practice for three days, everyone knows it;

3) Good habits emphasize persistence: every day without dancing is a waste of life.


Music category

1) Perseverance leads to success: make your little finger move every day;

2) Daily practice: The essence of music lies in perseverance (unlimited repertoire).


Sports

Choose your favorite sport and record the exercise process with photos or videos.

How to set up a complete check-in activity:

1. Preliminary preparation: Clarify the theme of the check-in activity and plan the activity plan.


1) The principal needs to conduct internal mobilization:


Be sure to note that mobilization is not just about drawing a cake in a meeting and telling the teacher to get to work, but about telling the teacher that if the activity is done well, there will be rewards!


According to the students' check-in results, give corresponding rewards to the teachers. For example, the teacher who completes the most clock in students will receive a clock in star; Divide into first, second, and third prizes based on the number of completed students; Any teacher who contributes to the check-in activity will receive a positive star reward.


2) The division of labor for activities should be clear:


The principal spent a day assigning tasks, making the teachers clear about their work, preparing a division of labor table, and breaking down each teacher's work into daily tasks.


Prepare promotional materials and posters for the check-in event within one week, as well as post event sharing posters and materials. At the, 89);">D、 Long term check-in activity: that is, after each class, upload homework, and this check-in activity is effective throughout the entire semester.  


Of course, as your thoughtful little one, I have also prepared some themes that schools can directly use.


Take these themes as examples to do your own check-in activities.

2. Event preheating: Arrange the order of poster and copywriting push.

Of course, as your thoughtful little one, I have also prepared some themes that schools can directly use.


1. The interaction between teachers and parents should be timely:

maintain effective and high-frequency home school interaction. For example, the review of clock in assignments should be done no later than 7 pm the next day, and a summary of clock in activities should be conducted in the group every evening at 8 pm, with praise given to children who perform well.


Remind children who have not checked in, and also provide private chat and consultation to parents of such students.



2. Teacher's encouragement is important:

effective praise will encourage children to clock in. Parents are also willing to share their check-in activities on their social media when they see their children receiving praise from their teachers.


Parents' social media circles are all their own friends, who are our target customers. Every dissemination and sharing is an exposure of the school brand, which can help the school grow and develop better.


Checking in is not the ultimate goal of the school. The ultimate goal of the school is to enhance students' learning enthusiasm, cultivate good habits for children, and encourage parents to participate in check-in activities and see their children's progress. Points and rewards are shared by parents to promote referrals and enrollment.


For the clock in activity, you've heard me talk so much, but it's far better for you to do it once. Only by doing Xiaoyi clock in once can you truly understand why I firmly believe Xiaoyi clock in will make the entire process more efficient and automated. It will bring you an unprecedented check-in experience. Truly making campus check-in activities time-saving and efficient.
