My Students
My third-grade classroom is an exciting place for all students to learn and grow as scholars and citizens of a bigger world. They are taught and encouraged to work with others to challenge each other and themselves.
It is a place where differences are celebrated and supported.
As a class community, we understand that children learn in different ways and at different paces. With that understanding in mind, students work together in teams to leverage each student’s strengths to help each other learn and grow. Some students work best in groups, while others need some space to process information alone before engaging with others. Some students need hard copies of texts while others prefer digital or audio/visual access to those same or differentiated texts to best process and learn from them. The students are highly engaged in their learning and progress due to their input and investment in the process.
My Project
The students will use the M&M containers as piggy banks to "save" tokens earned (Crabbe Coins). Students will earn Crabbe Coins for full-day attendance, exemplary work, helping others, carrying out responsibilities around the classroom, etc. They will save their Crabbe coins all month and have a chance to spend them at the end of the month on the prizes and incentives listed in the project such as the candy, pencils, and toys. If students choose to save their money, at the end of the following month they will receive bonus Crabbe coins as they would receive interest for saving real money.
Using Crabbe coins and incentives, students will learn that earning money takes commitment and responsibility and that thought and planning goes into how to spend money responsibly.
More than a third of students from low‑income households
