At the beginning of the school year my students had trouble staying on task, following the rules, and showing kindness towards each other. My main goal, aside from education, was to teach my students how to become the best person they can be. It took a lot of work, but now my students hold doors for strangers, use kind words to build each other up, and go out of their way to help others in need. I don't believe this would have been as successful as it was without my classroom store. At first, I know the behaviors where preformed just to earn prizes, but now I see them showing kindness all the time without acknowledgement. I want to reward their great behavior and hard work they have shown both academically and socially with one last classroom store that will blow their minds! All the prizes that I have chosen for this project were recommended to me by the students. Some of the prizes they suggested were art supplies, basketballs, books, summer fun baskets and crafts. The students are so excited to earn these awesome prizes. They will have a chance to earn them by collecting classroom money throughout the remainder of the year. On the last day of school, they will be bidding on each item like an auction. By funding this project you will not only place a smile on a child's face, but you will also give them an opportunity to have something that they want when most of the time they don't always get the things they need at home. Thank you!
