Organize and Revitalize

Help me give my students with new binders to facilitate the organization of differentiated lessons and rewards to incentivize them to achieve their goals.

My Project

I'm seeking assistance in obtaining new binders for my students who receive modified classwork in the general education classroom. As some of these students have specific executive functioning needs, it would greatly benefit them to have dedicated binders where they can consolidate their papers and effectively work towards their individualized goals.

My primary objective for this project is to supply my students with new binders.

This will enable them to keep all their essential regular education papers and modified classwork in one place, reducing the risk of disorganization. Furthermore, having their papers readily accessible will allow students to practice their skills more frequently, even when they are on the move. To motivate the students, I conducted an interest inventory and discovered their desire to be rewarded with snacks.

My students are dedicated and strive for success in the classroom. However, they could benefit from some assistance in organizing their tasks to maximize their learning potential. My students are diligent and greatly appreciate tangible rewards to commemorate their achievements. I aim to reward them with items of their choosing as a means of motivation. Your assistance would be greatly appreciated in making this possible!
