My Project

Help me give the students in our school the rewards and incentives that they deserve for their hard work. I see all students from Kindergarten through 5th grade multiple times a week. I teach them Social Emotional Learning as well as the Computer Technology Skills that they need to be successful in their education.

When students are working towards a reward, they are focused on doing their work correctly in my classroom.

When a student meets a specific goal in my classroom they are rewarded with a prize from the treasure box. Stamps, pencils, stickers and fidgets are something that everyone enjoys. This reward system has helped my students at being successful at learning computer skills and typing essays in the classroom.

When teaching SEL I focus on lessons that are art based. When teaching multiple grade levels, multiple times a week crayons and colored pencils are always in high demand for my classroom. Not only do my students enjoy art, but art focused SEL lessons give them a chance to calm their body and mind.
