My kids work hard every day and earn points for working hard and following classroom expectations. I want to give them rewards for the points they earn with a Prize Box. I want to be able to have healthy snacks available for my students because kids really are growing a lot at the middle school level and seem to always be "hungry." My students are English Learners and come from a variety of backgrounds and situations. I want an even playing field for everyone in my classroom so being able to keep them focused on learning and not their hunger, would be huge. I want to guarantee that all my students are successful in and out of the classroom. With this new online way of learning, I want to make sure that I am able to provide quality instruction to my students. My students are with me the majority of the day, which allows me to really get to know them.
