My Project

Tennis balls will be placed over the feet of all the classroom chairs. This will help cut down the amount of noise in the classroom. Incentive charts are used to provide incentives and rewards for students who follow the classroom rules and complete homework on time. iPad chargers are needed to keep student iPads charged and ready to use.

By donating to this project, you will help provide a peaceful (tennis balls) learning environment, you will help incentivize (incentive charts) student learning and positive behavior, and you will help keep iPads charged and ready to go for reinforcement activities.
