Ninety-five percent of the students in our school are on free or reduced lunch. I've found that my 3rd graders will do just about anything for a reward.
A big part of my job is to motivate students to do their work and do the right thing, which is quite challenging. These students are not challenged at home and are given very little encouragement. I give treats randomly during the day for: random acts of kindness, good behavior in line or in class, staying on task, finishing a class assignment correctly, for math drills, being brave enough to answer a question not knowing if it is right or not, helping their peers with a problem and MANY other different things. In order to coax these students into participating in class, doing their work, using proper manners, respecting the rights of others, having good conduct, studying, and doing well on tests, these incentives are greatly needed. I spend a lot of my own money on supplies and the basic classroom needs of my students. I have no funds available for incentives. This grant was funded last year by a very generous donor. It worked so well with my students that I am asking again to do the same thing.
Please realize how important your contribution would be to my third graders! It would make a difference in their day to know that someone cares and wants them to do well. Your help would be greatly appreciated!! My students need assorted candies, including Tootsie Rolls and Jolly Ranchers. HIDEMrs. J.'s Classroom:
