My Project

I love using positive reinforcement to foster an inclusive and fun classroom environment. Every student deserves to be recognized, even for what most would consider the "little" things. Whether the student picked up a piece of trash, held open a door, overcame their fear of public speaking to give a presentation, or dressed up for school spirit week-- all of these deserve recognition!

The more students feel recognized for the "small" things-- academic or not--, the more connected they feel to their learning environment, and the more successful they will be.

All of these effects positively impact students' mental health which has taken such a hit over the past couple of years.

I like to use raffle tickets for novelty school supply prizes as a motivator for students to be kind, help others, try their best, contribute to positive school culture, and step out of their comfort zones. With these unique raffle prizes, students will feel motivated to take that extra step to improve themselves and their classroom community.
