My Project

My students come to school every day ready and eager to learn. Having a plan for positive behavior support is beneficial for my students. If behavior problems are at a minimum academics increase.

My students are in need of extra support and keeping them motivated is key to learning.

Amazon gift cards will be used for PBIS (Positive behavioral interventions and supports. Students will participate in discussions about financial decisions using the gift cards and incentives they would like to see in our treasure chest.

Throughout the year we celebrate many holidays to bring friends and family together for various reasons. My students will create flower craft cards to bring home to their moms or special person in their life. Celebrating the holidays is an important part of our year and is often the most memorable. Creating presents to bring home to families brings a smile to everyone.

These resources will be beneficial in our classroom and have a positive impact on my students.
