My Project

I am blessed to work with 18 amazing 4th grade students. They have a had a rough couple of years in school and I am working hard to get them caught up in learning. I am their second teacher that they have had this year so they struggle behaviorally and academically. I am requesting things that 4th grade students are interested in such as flair pens, fidget toys, squishies, candy, erasers, slime, and putty. Student will earn the items for good behavior and for working hard on their academic goals.

Each student comes with their own personal and learning challenges and because of this, they don't always have the motivation for school.

I hope that the items in this project will help provide motivation and incentives for them.
