My Students

I teach at a poverty elementary school and they are happy when they come to school. They come to the school and feel safe with the school's environment. They know they will be taken care of while they are at the school. The students are very lovable and want to please the people they are around.

These students are highly motivated when we share their growth in their achievements.

We would like to have incentives for the student's hard work. The students want to please their teachers because we give them good verbal feedback on their achievements and they thrive on doing good.

My Project

If we had a commercial snow cone machine, then students would have something tangible to see that they are doing a good job. We would like to reward students for reading, math, attendance and other achievements.

The snow cone machine would put many smiles on the faces of BTE students who have worked hard on academics and other accomplishments.

This would be used school wide and be used throughout the year. We want to give the children some positive feedback by providing colorful snow cones to show they are working hard.
