Participation and Competition Raises School Spirit
Help me give my students small interactive prizes for our class competitions and holiday giveaways.
FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Kaufman's classroom raised $187
This project is fully funded
Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
The student love reviewing class information with friendly, but competitive, games. Sometimes the competitions are just for fun at the end of the week. Small prizes have really added to the enjoyment and enthusiasm of the students.
The students now request these prizes and look forward to chances to win them.
However, every student is eventually given a prize so that no one feels left out. These keychains, inspirational stones, and puzzle cubes have been favorites in the past. The students look forward to our class review sessions just so they can win a prize (everyone gets a prize by the end).
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
