Rewards for Extra Effort in English 2

Help me give my students rewards for their hard work and determination in English 2!

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Seal's classroom raised $220

My Project

Each semester I teach English 2, which in the state of Mississippi is state tested. Students must pass their state test in order to graduate, so it's extremely important that they do well and work hard each day to prepare for the test.

Having said that, often the content can be boring and monotonous, which is where this project comes in; I'd like to be able to reward my students who are working hard with incentives, small things like candy, to help motivate them to continue working hard each and every day.

Each time a student reaches one of their goals, they will receive a reward. These goals will range form things like improving their writing from one essay to the next, to things like participating more often in class. Please help me motivate my students to be their best by providing them with some fun incentives!
