My Project
In my 5th-grade classroom, I strive to create a positive and motivating learning environment where students feel inspired to do their best every day. One of the ways I encourage good behavior, hard work, and kindness is through a reward system.
To enhance this system, I am seeking funding to introduce a "Treasure Box" filled with fun goodies such as fidget toys, Croc charms, snacks, and candy.
This treasure box will be a key component in recognizing and rewarding the positive choices my students make.
The treasure box will provide tangible rewards for students who demonstrate positive behavior, such as showing kindness, completing assignments, helping their peers, or actively participating in class discussions. This system encourages students to continue making good choices.
Motivation and Engagement: Fun rewards like fidget toys, Croc charms, and tasty snacks add an extra layer of excitement to the classroom. These small but meaningful incentives help to keep students motivated and engaged, giving them something to look forward to when they go above and beyond.
By rewarding not just academic achievements but also social-emotional skills like cooperation, empathy, and respect, the treasure box will play a role in fostering a positive, inclusive classroom culture. It encourages students to take pride in their actions and be recognized for their contributions to our classroom community.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
