My Project

Help provide prizes for our prize bucket! Students are given rewards for games, hard-work, answers to challenges and/or assessment scores. This time of year it is crucial to maintain student engagement. I would like to be able to offer them more options to choose from.

Also, supplies such as markers and tissues are always a necessity in the classroom (allergy season is approaching).

Correcting with these nice BIC pens also makes it more enjoyable! Students are also able to color code which these pens aid in that learning strategy.

Thank you!
