My Project

My students are 1st graders! They are learning so much about being independent, problem solvers, how to stay on-task, and being a positive role model inside and outside the classroom. For this, students earn class cash for SOAR-ing behavior- Successful, On-task, Always safe, Responsible & Respectful. My students thrive on positive feedback from peers and other teachers in the school and most importantly, they ALL remember this specific feeling when given positive compliments! For this, there is no better way to fuel this intrinsic feeling than to reward them with a classroom store to spend their class cash.

My Project:

The goal of this project is to update our Falcon SOAR Store with trending items like stickers, jibbets, classroom toys, desk pets, rings, cars, mini erasers, cool pens and pencils, and more! These rewards are just a few of the many my students put on their wish list. Having a SOAR Store display inside their classroom will continue to motivate them to SOAR both inside and outside of the classroom.

My students have already shown positive behaviors and exceed expectations in being independent learners and problems solvers through earning class cash. My hope is that they will continue to SOAR as they move forward in their educational journey.
