A recognition certificate

is a great way to stimulate engagement . To reward your students with something tangible they can show their parents and hang on their wall is a strategic way to build higher expectations in your students. The benefits from using this strategy are many: First, the student is acknowledged, meeting a basic human need. Secondly, others in the class (or in the family) are motivated to strive to succeed. Positive reinforcement. Thirdly, the achieving student sets a bar for themselves to live up to going forward and this drives them to want to repeat the success. 

Certificates that stipulate the particular achievement of the student will be a constant reminder to them at times when their performance may be lagging, that they are capable of good outcomes.
