							| I �m using the traffic light system together with stickers; I made a chart on the wall with each student �s name and picture (since they are small and can �t read yet). At the beginning of the day they are all on green, if they misbehave as first warning, they get orange and if it continues red (plus a consequence for their behaviour). If I see a child do really great work, they get a pink card (or whatever color you want) and they deserve a sticker.  Like this you motivate them to do even better and you don �t give away too many stickers probably. Or you can tell them for every 5 pink cards they get a sticker (as an example).
 Well, it �s just what I �m doing and it works well, maybe it inspires you a bit :)

							| I use stamps to corret notebook, and worksheets. But we have a board in the wall where we put a star as a reward, we count it every friday and then I give them candies, stickers, or a certificate as a "the helper of the week" - "the cleanest table" - ertc. 
 Good luck!
