Valentine's Day Incentives

Help me give my students incentives to celebrate their goal achievement and learning.

Saint Louis, MO Grades 6-8

My Project

In the new year, my students are working hard to meet their goals. Incentives for this hard work are needed to celebrate their accomplishments and give them some Valentine's Day cheer. Incentives of fun glasses, bouncy balls, fun pens, and other trinkets help reward students for their hard work and dedication to meet their goals. Please help provide incentives and positive reinforcments for a job well done. My students and I appreciate all your support as these students continue to make strides in learning while deal with trauma, unstable homelives, and lack of parental support.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
