Badge Activities
Directions
Attention Adults! The badges in this course can be given as rewards when a student
masters the skill(s) covered in each lesson.

All badges and collection sheets are included in the other PDF accompanying this
lesson. The collection sheets are designed to form a booklet for the student to work
through as they complete each lesson. Just cut along the dotted lines and staple
together! After completion of each lesson and adequate practice, the student may
color in the badge outline on each booklet page. Alternatively, they can cut out the
badges and glue them onto the page. By the end of this course, the booklet will be a
fun reminder of all of the skills they have learned.

We recommend awarding the child their badge when they are able to complete the
task independently, with minimal errors. Ultimately, you are the judge of your
student’s mastery.
