My Project

Who doesn't love a good treasure box? I want to supply my students with two things; intrinsic motivation and awesome treasure box prizes. One action will influence the other. My students will want to learn new concepts and work harder to learn the concepts being taught. In return, students will receive prizes from the treasure box. My students need a little motivation and encouragement at times. My students are special beings because they want to learn and the have the patience and desire to want to do well. Why not give the students the opportunity to accomplish their goal and receive prizes . I want to supply my students with two things; intrinsic motivation and awesome treasure box prizes. One action will influence the other. My students will want to learn new concepts and work harder to learn the concepts being taught. In return, students will receive prizes from the treasure box. Instead of rewarding only correct answers, reward: Asking thoughtful questions, helping a classmate, using a new strategy, showing resilience, completing revisions, independent reading risks.
