My Project

We're all about encouraging good behavior in our science classroom through our Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) program. How? Well, we want to have "Fun-Size Candy Fridays"! Imagine your kids being rewarded with a little treat every Friday for being awesome and following the classroom rules. It's a sweet (literally!) way to motivate good behavior and show them that their efforts are appreciated. With your support, we'll be able to get the candies and create a super fun incentive that keeps the positivity flowing. But wait, there's more!

We're looking to spice up our test reviews with a Jeopardy Buzzer System.

Learning shouldn't be boring, right? So, we want to turn our review sessions into an exciting game-show style activity. Students will hit buzzers to answer questions, competing with each other and reinforcing their knowledge in the process. It's a fantastic way to make studying more interactive and engaging. Your contribution will help us get the buzzers and set the stage for some seriously fun learning.
