My Project

Please help our star students of the month find motivation to keep doing their best. As Literacy Intervention teacher, part of my role is to not only assist students with their learning needs, but to also encourage them to work hard and try their best.

Across grade levels we recognize ELA Stars each month.

These stand out students are recognized for their hard work in ELA class. I'm seeking motivational prizes such as star themed pencils and erasers, colored pens, fidget toys, and snacks to give them positive reinforcement to continue to be successful in school.

Students respond well to praise and positive reinforcement . They love receiving prizes especially when they know their hard work has paid off. Prizes such as pencils, erasers, and pens can be utilized for classwork and homework assignments. Students with anxiety, or who are looking for coping skills will benefit from the fidget toys. The students will also love the option of receiving delicious snacks. Your assistance with obtaining these prizes will be so helpful. Thank you for your generosity and helping me keep my students inspired.
