My Project

I am a LINKS teacher with students who have autism. Autism is a disorder that is very wide-ranged. Some students are high functioning and others are not as high. As a result, they are very "burnt out" from working hard this school year. They are taking the Massachusetts Comprehensive Assessment Systems test. As you can probably figure it is very hard to place kids (never mind Autistic) on a systemic scale as they are all different. The time is coming up for students to prepare to take "MCAS" but also finish the year strong. Please help me with my "motivation for elevation" kit. This kit is designed to give students the opportunity to earn raffle tickets to possibly win a prize every Friday from a treasure chest, which will include items such as snacks, drinks, bracelets, and charms that will motivate them to do their best.

Grades 9-12
