Many items have been used as self-regulation tools to help students when they begin to feel frustrated or overwhelmed by the task presented to them.\r\n\r\nOther items have been used as motivational prizes. My students are able to choose a prize when they achieve a new high school or reach their personal goal. This has been a truly powerful incentive system. Students have amazed me time and time again with their personal growth academically and behaviorally. The prizes serve as tangible celebrations of their perseverance and hard work.\r\n\r\nMy students were so excited when they saw the boxes arriving and as we began to unpack and see all the fun items donated to our classroom. They have loved being able to earn a variety of prizes over the last couple of months and are so proud of their hard work.\r\n\r\nBy providing the items in the \"Bricks and Rewards,\" project, you haven't just donated materials - you have given my students the tools to believe in their own ability to succeed, self-regulate, and grow.
