My Project

My students are amazing and they work hard to reach their goals. My students love to work to earn prizes and I would love to set up a reward shop for them, where they can earn points during the week and then work to buy prizes with their points.

Financial literacy is so important for my students who have difficulty understanding the concepts of using money to purchase items and to save money.

I am requesting many sensory toys that students enjoy holding and engaging. These materials will help my students keep their hands busy and minds engaged during learning tasks. Bubble wands, squishy toys, cars, and fidgets will help create a school store where students can earn, save, and spend points to further their knowledge of financial literacy.
