Treats to Motivate

Help me give my students motivation in the form of snacks and candy!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Jackson's classroom raised $183

This project is fully funded

My Project

Who doesn't love a little treat to motivate them? I can tell you that my kids love a little something to remind them they are doing a great job. We use Lexia for reading skills and these minutes are tracked to see that they are doing a great job. With every class, they are awarded for moving up a level, which can take weeks. I like to reward our top 5 users each week to give them more manageable goals to work towards. I have chosen blow pops, ring pops, gum and other fun candy to give as a prize for working so hard.

We set goals each week and the top 5 users of the platform will be able to earn one of the prizes!

They earn these prizes, and our class gets a shout out on the overhead speaker, and we love it! Thank you for helping us!
