My Project
Help me give my students motivation to academically achieve our reading goal. We use a program that moves my students a grade level by the end of the year. We have quarterly goals and rewards are needed.
My students are bright, inquisitive, and full of questions!
They are fun and love social media, especially tik-tok. If they have two extra seconds during the day, they are dancing. They are worldly, often asking me, "Mrs. C, you know what that means?" They keep me on my toes while making me smile, as only a middle school student is able.
Many of my students are lacking academic motivation. They rarely complete homework and they need a lot of motivation to stay on top of their work and their grades. They are kind with good hearts and always respond to positive motivation.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
