Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

As we approach our 4th and final term, my scholars need a little extra boost to incentivize their process and behavior gains. I want to incentivize positive behavior and motivate them to do their best. Each day students can earn points based on the school-wide expectations, they can then use those points to select various treats. This not only gives them a goal, but it in a sense teaches financial literacy.

The treats I requested will be used as rewards for positive behavior and will be given out daily to create a positive and exciting environment.

I believe that the erasers and treats are a great way to incentivize positive behavior and create a fun and positive atmosphere in our school. By providing my students with a treasure chest, snacks, erasers, and other treats, I hope to increase their motivation and enthusiasm to finish the year out strong.
