My Project

My students work hard every day, and I love finding creative ways to keep them motivated and excited about learning! I am requesting a variety of fun rewards, including pens, slime, Sonic the Hedgehog rings, tattoos, backpack hangers, masks, play packs, and fruit snacks.

These items will be used as incentives to encourage positive behavior, academic achievement, and classroom participation.

My students thrive when they have exciting rewards to look forward to, and these special prizes will help create an engaging and encouraging learning environment.

Your support will make a big difference in keeping students motivated and celebrating their hard work in a meaningful way. Any contribution, big or small, will bring smiles to their faces and help make learning even more rewarding!

Thank you for believing in our classroom!
