My Students

I am teaching gifted 4th graders who are always on the go. They are constantly moving and excited to learn. We move at a fast pace and I encourage my students to work hard.

Their energy level is really high and I have found that my students need incentives to help them focus and finish their work.

Their stress level is really high. They like to hold things to help them focus, like fidget spinners, and play with brain teaser puzzles.

My Project

Our class is learning to use growth mindset and mindfulness to stay positive and focused on achieving their goals. We are working on relaxation techniques to help us calm down. Students will earn their way to the prize wheel by completing assignments, showing their thinking, working together and participating in class activities.

These exciting rewards will help students to stay engaged and persistent while giving them a feeling of success and accomplishment.

Everyone needs a little motivation, and the prizes are great rewards for the kids. They love fidget spinners, building sets, and sensory toys to help them relax. These kids work really hard and deserve some fun! They will enjoy the incentives and help motivate them.
