Holiday Happenings--Stress Relief

Help me give my students slime kits, games, and squishy toys to "sell" in our points based holiday store.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Batdorf's classroom raised $247

This project is fully funded

My Project

Our school hosts an annual holiday store for our students. This store runs off of points that students earn for meeting their personal goals. Every student earns points and every student is able to shop. The requested slime kits, games, and squishy toys will be "purchased" by students through the holiday store.

Our students work diligently to earn their points to use in the holiday store.

We help students to set their own goals and the goals are appropriately matched to each student. Additionally, the items that students "purchase" are educational in nature and help students learn in fun and engaging ways. Most of our students select items that can be used by their family which also encourages quality family time and helps us to increase goodwill with our families.
