I would like to set up a VIP desk in my classroom for students to earn a chance to sit at. Students will earn the right to work there for the day by modeling ownership, perseverance, respect, attitude and responsibility with their work. Students who show this type of work ethic deserve to be rewarded and praised for going above and beyond! These students are amazing models to their peers and I would like to reward them for their positive work traits! These special markers, glitter, pencils and crayons would be available for them to use to "jazz" up their work even more and make it shine- just like they do! I am also asking for a container for them to store the VIP supplies inside of to help keep it organized for that area. Work ethic is such an important trait for students to have, and I would like to set up this area so each student can work towards achieving it! I know that with examples and modeling everyone can get to the special desk! I am hoping that if they see that they can all do it- it will become second nature to them!
