Making Smiles Happen in the Classroom

Help me give my students extra incentives to help learning take place in the classroom.

My Project

My students are dyslexic, so reading and spelling are a challenge. I love to give incentives for hard work and determination. This can be done by a simple sticker or a snack.

When I pass out work and it has a sticker on it, the student feels accomplishment, which is seen through the smile.

Pride is what I see in the student. Sometimes a student can not work, due to being hungry. If I can provide a snack for a student, then their hunger is fixed and learning can occur.
