My Project
Each week, I run a raffle to keep kids engaged in my classroom. Rather than penalizing students for doing the wrong thing, I like to reward students for doing the right thing. Historically, our school would give out "points" that could be used at various locations on campus. However, not all of the prizes were that motivating and I discovered how successful it was by creating my own raffle system in the classroom.
Candy is a great influential tools to help students stay on track!
I have seen first-hand how extrinsic motivators can help middle schoolers, and that is why I am back at it again. By providing some quality prizes, students will be eager to earn opportunities for raffle entries in my class and stoked to be a part of the weekly raffles.
