Crafts and Positive Behavioral Reinforcers

Help me give my students access to necessary school supplies to support their learning needs. Our 8:1:1 students benefit from regular craft breaks, edible reinforcers for positive behavior, and technological needs that include printing ink for graphic organizers.

My Project

My students are hardworking and good-natured. But sometimes they need incentives to keep them learning.

First, the materials are needed for the classroom because they will enrich the students' learning experiences and allow them to go from middle school to high school.

The students benefit from a rigorous and high quality education by engaging in lessons that bring out and refine their academic skills. The printed worksheets they finish is proof that they are learning. With printer ink, they can take on more challenging topics. Classroom supplies such as pencils, markers, and crayons will both generate more interest and ideas during lessons and create a way for students to organize their thoughts on paper.

Second, the materials will help with the students' behaviors by making them more confident in learning and reinforcing positive behaviors. Their favorite snacks will help them refocus and reenergize in school and create a more inclusive environment. The beanbag and headphones are used for the calming area of the classroom in case the students need a break. They can collect their emotions and thoughts to continue learning at school.

If you can help, not only you will be helping the students, but you will also be molding a brighter future for generations.

Thank you!

Mr. Tolentino Riverview PS 277Q @311 Grades 6-8
