Sped Classroom Prizes for Students

Help me give my students prizes for the prize box, and classroom ambiance.

This project is fully funded

My Project

I would like to ask for help filling my prize box. My students earn prizes for practice they do at home on reading tasks. They also earn prizes for staying on task during our reading/writing/math groups. I work with students that struggle in these areas and extrinsic motivation is very important to help them get over the challenges they face daily.

I would also love to add some extra lighting and fun ambience to my room, helping to make coming for groups fun and something that they want to do.

It can be so challenging to get students with learning challenges excited about learning.
