The students will take many standardized tests in the upcoming days. The snacks will help motivate the students to take their time and concentrate. We would like to create an atmosphere like they would have at home. We will use the mints to help the students put on their thinking caps. The water and snacks will ensure that they don't get hungry throughout the duration of the tests. The students took an interest survey and stated that these are the things that they would like for incentives while testing. The students will be able to choose a snack before they begin their test and keep nearby to enjoy at the snack time. allotted. The students are excited about the opportunity to receive snacks as an incentive as a way to help encourage the students to do their very best!
