Fun Activities for Classroom Rewards

Help me give my students some fun activities to use during free time or as rewards for outstanding effort and achievement. I wanted to get games that had a primarily positive association with ELA.

My Project

I want to acquire the requested games and buzzers for resources that mainly relate to ELA or logical reasoning. This way, when my students have earned a reward, there will be more activities to choose from that will interest them. I hope that having more fun activities to choose from will lead to more engagement and effort from my students.

With more to choose from, my students will have more reasons to go above and beyond what is expected.

For students struggling to maintain interest, it will provide a goal and a reason to push through struggles.
