My Project

I have 120 sixth and seventh grade students who are working on playing solos on different instruments; including flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, percussion guitar. These students have been working really hard on their performance goals.

Please help give me the resources to reward my students for all of their hard work and dedication to music!

The items I'm requesting for my classroom will make a difference in their learning because they know they will be rewarded. We are working on intrinsic motivation, but knowing there is a piece of candy (even little) makes students work harder to achieve their goals.

Ms. Voss
Grades 6-8
  • Harding Middle School
  • Cedar Rapids, IA
    • Half of students from low‑income households

    This project will reach 100 students.
