Help Me With Treasure Box and Classroom Items!

Help me give my students a super fun reward for their amazing behavior!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Edwards's classroom raised $310

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are amazing! They come to school to learn and they work very hard. I have requested many items to fill their Treasure Box. I use ClassDojo to reward good behavior! When they get enough points, they can buy things from the Treasure Box. I love rewarding my students for good behavior, but it is very expensive buying items for their Treasure Box.

I also have some classroom items that are needed.

We typically go through a lot of pencils. I also love doing centers, but Ziplock bags just don't last long. The IKEA bags are more durable and will help me keep all of the centers in better condition so they last longer. I also included some wireless doorbells. These will be used to signal transitions so I can save my voice! The hot glue gun will help me help the students create some amazing crafts to display or take home. The mini broom sets will help keep our classroom clean Lastly, the sight words will be used as a center to help my students learn them!
