My Project

My team wants to motivate our students as we get ready for the Texas STAAR math and reading tests. Students will earn STAAR money as they go through their review for each subject. This money will be used to purchase items in our grade level STAAR store.

I want my STAAR store to have an exciting variety of prizes to motivate my students to work hard and try their best!

Our students work really hard the two weeks before STAAR tests and our team wants to make sure they are motivated. I want to give them something to work towards as they prepare to show how bright they are on their state tests!
