Motivation Store

Help me give my students motivation for learning. I have a store in my room where students can buy prizes based on points they earn for working hard and good behavior.

My Project

My students love to learn, but just like adults sometimes they need motivation or rewards for hard work.

Our Dojo Store allows students to "spend" the points they earn for good behavior and hard work.

Some of my kinders like saving up for larger prizes while some enjoy getting several little things from the store every 2 weeks.

The Dojo Store not only helps motivate their academic learning it helps them learn how to save for something they want. Later in the year they also get to start using their math skills to figure out what they can buy on their own.
