My Students
My students come to school every day with a desire to learn despite their home environments. My school is a Title I campus which means a large percentage of students receive free lunch. Some families receive a backpack full of food to take home for the weekends. Even though they face many economic and emotional challenges, my students want and need to be successful!
For many of my students, coming to school is the best part of their day.
This has become especially true after the devastation of Hurricane Harvey. My students deserve to have access to materials that will foster their love of learning and fun!
My Project
My students need extra incentives that will motivate them to meet their academic and behavioral goals every week. In our class, students earn weekly points in order to visit the class prize box. Students earn points through completing class work, staying on task, achieving high grades, showing kindness and helping others.
The addition of these incentives such as the drawing pens, mini footballs and Play-Doh will create determination within my students to be able to meet their behavioral and academic goals.
The incentives will allow the students that struggle the most, the praise they need to help encourage and motivate them to not give up on their learning goals.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
