What A Treasure

Help me give my students treasure chest and toys for our classroom rewards.

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Ware's classroom raised $231

This project is fully funded

My Project

My students are first graders who love participating in class and learning. They enjoy working hard for the tangible award of their choice. These treasure box toys will help encourage all students to participate and stay focused while learning as they work towards earning a toy.

Treasure box Friday's is one of my students' favorite part of the week!

My first graders get to choose a toy from the treasure box after having earned it during the week. Sometimes we have an “awesome answer or response” and the treasure chest is opened unexpectedly. The treasure box will help keep my students learning and encourage positive behavior, which in turn will impact everyone in the classroom positively.
