This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.
I want to support and supply my students with INCENTIVES and REWARDS for Positive Behavioral Interventions and Support, reaching self-created goals, hard work, perseverance, academic accomplishments, and attendance through positive behavior intervention supports.
Providing the students with individualized incentives based on their individualized education program goals and academic achievements is important to me and will allow them to improve social, emotional, behavioral, and academic outcomes.
These incentives of gift cards will allow me to connect with them beyond the classroom and reward them for their efforts during an unusual time.
For example, for students who are staying on top of their work and exhibiting model behavior online, setting a goal, and offering them an incentive would give them something to look forward to and can motivate them. Other ways to support students through incentives are acknowledging honor roll, most improved, excellence in a specific area, and students who exhibit leadership qualities. Overall, these gift cards will be used as incentives to reward students for academic accomplishments and to promote positive behaviors in schools.
The effective educator speaks the language of his students and knows their needs beyond the classroom. We cannot let this time pass without doing everything that is possible to ensure that we are creating opportunities to engage and support students.
With your support, I will be able to provide multiple students with gift cards as rewards by setting individualized academic goals.
Nearly ALL of my students come from low-income households so when it comes to health and wellness, the definition of wellness is very vague in their world. These incentives will ensure that students can have access to fresh food which they, unfortunately, may not have the easiest time acquiring on a daily basis.
