My Project

This project will provide materials to make slime as a reward incentive for students. With baking soda, shaving cream, food coloring, glue, and slime activator, we’ll be able to create a fun, hands-on activity that students love. Slime-making is more than just a treat—it encourages positive behavior, builds classroom community, and gives students something exciting to work toward. These supplies will help me celebrate their hard work and make learning more joyful. Thank you for supporting creativity, motivation, and meaningful rewards in our classroom. Your generosity truly makes a difference!
