PBIS Treasure Chest

Help me give my students candy or stickers as a reward for their amazing behavior.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Whitman's classroom raised $194

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

For this project I am hoping to get some small prizes that can be put in a treasure chest for students to go to when they have earned it. Classroom management can be challenging but it makes it easier when kids have something to look forward to. The reward system (PBIS) has shown to be very effective when it comes to classroom management. Students want to receive the total amount of stars or smiley faces everyday to reach the end and be able to get that reward. Music and being able to pick their own seats for the day are good rewards but I am hoping to be able to give them a little reward that they can take with them for their amazing behavior and their hard work into making sure that they are kind people. I would really like your support to make this possible. Thank you!
