My Project

Our school recently received a book vending machine. It is placed in the dining room where all of our students can see it.

Now we just need books to fill the vending machine.

We have selected a variety of books (nonfiction, fiction, picture books, chapter books) that our students will be interested in. These books will go in the vending machine.

When students go above and beyond the schoolwide expectations, they can earn a token that will allow them to select a book from the vending machine. What a wonderful way to reward students!
