The materials requested will be used to develop a classroom reward system for those kids who reach specific goals set. These goals will include goals for daily classwork, test scores, and behavior. Because I teach students who are disadvantaged, as a result of social inadequacies, I know that giving them incentives, will help motivate them to do better. These materials will also be used as therapeutic resources to help the children concentrate while learning. The fidget spinners can be used to help the kids focus more on their daily classwork and/ projects. Many of our students come with their inability to deal with anger, and the stress balls as well as many of the other gadgets ordered will help to calm my students and relieve stress or anxiety.
