Make a Student Praise Note, in Seconds

Strengthen relationships by quickly generating meaningful praise messages.

Teaching context:
Perfect for student wellbeing programs or when you want to recognise effort but are short on time.

Basic AI Prompt:
Write a short praise note for a hardworking student.

Enhanced AI Prompt:
Write a positive postcard message for a Year 5 student who has consistently shown kindness and helped classmates during group work.

Spice it up:
Ask for variations suitable for email, printed certificates or school newsletters.

Lesson implementation:
Use praise notes as part of your classroom culture or wellbeing plan. When a student demonstrates excellent behaviour or improvement, use AI to generate a meaningful message that goes beyond “well done”. These can be printed, emailed or posted home. You could also automate a weekly draw where students nominate each other and AI drafts the praise. Pair this with a display wall or a digital recognition tracker.

For differentiation, adapt language levels to match student comprehension. This task boosts morale and shows parents that effort is valued. Ideal for wellbeing weeks or values education programs.
