Encouraging Positive Behavior & Learning Through Rewards!

Help me give my students For many of my students, school can be challenging, and positive reinforcement significantly affects their engagement and confidence. By providing meaningful rewards, they can make good choices and develop a love for learning.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Juariza's classroom raised $249

My Project

My resource students work hard daily to improve their reading, writing, and behavior skills. To motivate and encourage them, I use a positive reinforcement system where students earn rewards for showing respect, using kind words, following classroom rules, and completing their daily tasks. At the end of each successful week, they participate in Fun Friday—a special time to celebrate their achievements.

To keep this momentum going, I need your help!

I am seeking support to provide exciting prizes and rewards, such as small toys, books, stickers, school supplies, and fun activities, to recognize their efforts and keep them engaged in learning.
