These fun prizes will be used to reward good behavior choices that students make each day. As other students see the exciting items in the class treasure box they will strive to make good choices as well. Some of the prizes that motivate first grade students are stickers, slap bracelets, balloons, slime, and stretchy toys. These prizes will hopefully cause a ripple effect of good behavior in the classroom. I hope to see students making positive behavior choices for themselves and spreading kindness to others. As the behavior in the classroom improves the learning environment also improves. I will be able to focus more on teaching and making learning fun and engaging and spend less time addressing behavior concerns.
