My Project

My students have been working hard on learning how to read and accomplishing their goals. To incentivize them, we decided to create a reward system for accomplishing their goals. They will earn these rewards as they move toward their goals. They were asked what they would like to earn and they are so excited to start getting their rewards for reading.

The materials will not only reward them but also gives me more resources to help them learn, specifically their sight words which they are all struggling with.

I want to improve my learning as well so these materials will help me as well.
