Awesome Attendance Incentives, Way To Go!

Help me give my students perfect attendance incentives and sweet treats. By providing incentives to students, is my way of encouraging students to attend school everyday. There are often times, students will not make a full week.

My Project

Attendance rewards are now very common and are seen as an effective way to increase attendance. As an educator, my main goal is to encourage students to attend school regularly and motivate them to continue to strive for perfect attendance.

I would like to offer a variety of incentives for students to improve and increase attendance.

The gift bags will be used as a token to reward students. I would like to include the perfect attendance ribbons along with sweet treats. I do believe the incentive approach will work.

As an educator, sometimes it takes a little encouragement or motivation to get the desire behavior expected from students.

When students are frequently absent , it puts a deep damper on their education. They can fall behind in their studies, possibly impacting their academic performance by making it harder to understand any new material and keep up with classmates. They are missing core instruction and that is a crucial area.

As a dedicated and caring educator, my goal is to do everything that I can to help increase the attendance level, which will increase the student's performance level.
