My Project

Testing seasons can be stressful for students, and I want to ensure they have the support they need to stay focused and motivated. The majority of my students come from low income families. Most of my students do not bring their own snacks to school and do not have water bottles. Through this project I would be able to provide every student with a water bottle, as well as stickers to personalize their water bottle. This will allow them to have energy during the long testing sessions.

To keep students, engaged and motivated, I have included fidget toys and coloring books.

These small rewards will celebrate their hard work and perseverance.
