2-4-6-8 Organize and Motivate

Help me give my students desk pets for incentives, clear jars to "house" them, laminator pouches to protect their work, vinyl to personalize everything and a cart to transport it all in!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Manzi's classroom raised $744

This project is fully funded

My Project

Desk pets are 3D erasers that come in all shapes and sizes. Students purchase desk pets and accessories through our classroom economy system. They can even create their own desk pet habitat! These incentives motivate students to always do their best so they can earn the maximum amount of money needed to shop for their favorite items.

My classroom is an amazing place with even more amazing students.

Nothing makes them feel more at home in the classroom than having things personalized. Every one of my students is deserving of feeling at home, while at school. This project will help them stay motivated and comfortable in the classroom all year long!
