My Students

The students I work with each have an Individualized Education Plan. This means the students are academically two years or more below grade level. Reading, math, and so much more does not come easy to them. They want to learn and be like everyone else!

My students are working hard to close the gap in all aspects of life.

Many of the students are on a behavior plan. This plan rewards students for good work and behavior. My students work hard everyday to be better than they were yesterday.

My Project

I am asking for mostly rewards. All of my students have an IEP. They work hard both academically and behaviorally. My students need a tangible reward like scented stickers or a squishy balls to reinforce this good work.

Working very hard to close the gap academically and behaviorally for my students can be very frustrating and draining.

Earning a cool reward lets the students know their great work earns them a tangible reward.

I have used reward systems in the past for my students and it truly works. When the students see the selection of rewards like Flarp, Play-Doh, or slap bracelets; they become very motivated and excited to earn these rewards.

I am also requesting dry erase lap boards and erasers. These materials greatly assist the students in writing and solving math equations.
