My Project

My students have had a rough few years, prior to starting 6th grade this Fall. They have struggled with the motivation to complete assignments and strive to do their best in their academic and behaviors. It has been a great two months trying to build up a positive environment and encourage students to do their best this year, but I hope to continue to motivate them to strive for success.

The vending machine and small incentive prizes will help to bring joy and fun as a small reward that validates their hard work and effort.

I would love for them to know that they are seen and that I appreciate that they are making the effort to do their best to succeed. I have been trying really hard to recognize each individual student, and these items would bring excitement to our classroom.

These students deserve to be recognized and praised for their time and effort as they try hard to increase their academics and behavior. I would love to provide them with a little joy as a thank you appreciation for their focus, time, and effort. I absolutely have loved hearing their feedback of our year so far, and I hope that this incentive would continue to impact our year together to make school fun and enjoyable!
