Points
Points chore chart
Points are stars with arithmetic. They shine when jobs are unequal (trash vs. making a bed) and you do not want to pay cash daily.
Assign 1–3 points. Weekly target should be reachable on a normal school week, not only on a saint week.
Scoring
ChoreChart’s digital tracker adds points as boxes are checked. On paper, add on Sunday. Either way, publish the target on the page.
Questions parents ask
- What is a good weekly target?
- About 70–80% of possible points. Perfection targets create skipped boxes and then skipped weeks.
