My Project

Each month, I point out the individual successes and wins my students have shown in our English language development classroom.

When a particular student displays positive behaviors, growth, or academic success, I love to reward them.

Congrats! You are the Student of the Month!

The selected student will:

1. Be announced and recognized verbally in front of the whole class at the end of the month.

2. Earn a Student of the Month Certificate that has their name, date, month selected, and teacher's signature.

3. Take a picture with their certificate in front of our Student of the Month display.

4. Choose a prize from the prize box.

5. Choose one day to use our NEW Student of the Month Special Materials Bin during class time.

To be able to accomplish the above for each Student of the Month, we will need new supplies and old ones replenished. We are asking for new certificates for our students to acknowledge and document their accomplishments. To keep our display updated and running, we will also need FUJIFILM Instax Mini Film Value Pack Refill to continue to take and post pictures of our students. Our new Special Materials Bin needs some new and interesting supplies, like smelly stickers, sensory fidget tubes, fun animal writing pens, scented Smencils, and star student wristbands.

All of these items will be integral to rewarding and keeping our awesome Student of the Month program running! Thank you for taking the time to look at our new project!!
