My Project

My students have worked hard this year. Soon we will be showcasing our learning on the NWEA MAP Reading and Math tests. To provide a little more motivation for students to try their VERY BEST, I like to get "big" prizes for students who make or exceed their projected goal. The goal is set by the NWEA system. It's challenging, but I know my students can attain it.

Students who make their goal will pick a special toy to take home like a board game, Lego set, Barbie, sports ball, writing journal, etc.

Help me provide some toys for our prize table.
