It's a Wonderful Day - Prizes & Incentives Galore!

Help me give my students more learning resources and rewards help motivate them!

My Project

My amazing students work hard each day, but with incentives and prizes, they push even harder! The materials I am requesting will help motivate students to always push that much farther. The headphones are used daily for interventions in reading and math, the CD player helps students who aren't reading on level to read more interesting grade-level text while listening to the book on CD, and the prizes ... well they speak for themselves! Who doesn't like rewards? My students love to please and will work hard to earn prizes.
