My Project

I am requesting your support in helping me provide incentives for my students to achieve high scores on their Achieve3000 reading quizzes.

One of the challenges I have noticed is that many of my students struggle to stay motivated and engaged during their reading assessments.

In order to address this issue, I am hoping to provide them with snacks as a reward for their hard work and dedication.

By offering snacks as an incentive, I believe that my students will be more likely to actively participate in their reading assessments and strive to achieve high scores. This will not only help to boost their confidence and self-esteem, but it will also encourage them to develop a love for reading and learning.

However, as a public school teacher, my resources are limited, and I am unable to fund this initiative on my own. I am therefore reaching out to Donors Choose to request your assistance in purchasing snacks to give my students as incentives for achieving high scores on their Achieve3000 reading quizzes.

Your donation will not only help to improve my students' academic performance but also their overall well-being. Your support will also send a clear message to my students that their hard work and dedication are valued and recognized.

Thank you for considering my request, and I hope that you will choose to support my classroom and my students.
