Today has started our FINAL 6th 6 weeks! Our Awards Assembly will be this Friday!
We have implemented a new Incentive Game for our last 6 weeks. To sum it up, the children will have to "earn" points everyday. One white puff ball = 1 point. One colored puff ball = 5 points. This week their goal is to earn 50 points. Next week's goal is 60 points, and so on...The final week's goal is 100 Points.
How do they earn points? Everytime I see them staying on task...stretching their brain....helping out a friend....they get a puff ball in the cup. At the end of each day, the star student of the week will tally up the "points" and add it to our Points Chart. This is also extending our Math lessons in graphing. They will work on adding and subtracting by figuring out how many points are needed throughout the rest of the week to meet their goal. If they have met their goal by the end of the week, they will receive a "reward"!
It's the end of the year and we are getting a bit restless:) This will hopefully be a wonderful and positive way to keep them excited and learning until the last day of school!!
