Students sometimes need a little encouragement to be active participants in a math discussion. Small rewards go a long way to have more students volunteer to share their thinking and reasoning in math.
A salty or sweet treat for achieving a small feat - taking a risk to share in math!
That's what the rewards will be used for.
To further enhance student engagement, I plan to start a friendly competition where teams will work to earn points that will lead to a weekly reward. Being a Harry Potter fan, they will each be a member of a HP house and will be working to win the house cup.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
