The student is chosen based on behavior and turning in work. This has been a huge motivation for my students and they look forward to hearing who the next one is each month.]]> 2023-05-09 20:03:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584355845 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584357547 Along with the student of the month, they are given a choice of different prizes in the prize cart. In the prize cart is croc charms, candy, stickers, chips, and pencils. They are allowed to pick out 3 items. I will also occasionally gives out prizes from the cart if they get a high score on the review games, answering the bellwork correctly or if they are doing what they are supposed to be doing in class. This has made a huge impact on my classroom and has encouraged students to do their work. ]]> 2023-05-09 20:05:00 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584357547 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584360814 This mirror uplifts students to be reminded that they are smart, confident, funny, etc. This motivates students to have positive attitudes. ]]> 2023-05-09 20:08:58 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584360814 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584362278 I will motivate my students with labs that have food. In this experiment we showed the 3 different types of heat transfers (conduction, convection, and radiation) and made popcorn 3 different ways.]]> 2023-05-09 20:10:50 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584362278 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584367750 If a student gets an A on a test, I will send their parent an email with the positive news and parents are often thrilled about getting positive emails since they are so rare to receive. This has made my students motivated to score well on tests because they know their parents will hear about it. I will also email parents when they have shown huge growth on tests and that has also had the same impression on parents and students. ]]> 2023-05-09 20:17:36 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584367750 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584370262 2023-05-09 20:20:37 UTC https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584370262 jacquelynrifenberg https://padlet.com/jacquelynrifenberg/k2kkq51v1u06c9zr/wish/2584374267 If a student achieves an A on a test.
