Jumping on the Place Value and Pi Incentive Train

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Vasha's classroom raised $205

My Project

My students are a joy to work with this year. They are extremely eager and ready to learn when they come to school. We have a great time learning all subjects from ELA, to Math, to Science, and then to Social Studies.

Gift cards and books will be used for student incentives if they are presenting positive PBIS behavior.

For example, when a student earns ten or more tickets for the month through our PBIS reward system will earn a gift card. That gift card will be used for students to purchase an award that they earned through positive PBIS actions. The books are focused on Math because students need to see all subjects displayed in books.

The laminator machine and sheets will be used to display materials needed for class, and small group centers. Plus, the disinfectant wipes are used daily to help keep their area clean.
