Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

Introducing a treasure chest to the classroom can transform the learning environment into an exciting and rewarding space. This treasure chest serves as a tangible incentive system, motivating students to engage actively in their academic endeavors and exhibit positive behaviors. By earning rewards from the treasure chest for achievements such as academic excellence, good behavior, or participation, students feel acknowledged and valued for their efforts. Furthermore, the treasure chest fosters a sense of camaraderie and teamwork as students support each other in reaching their goals. Overall, the addition of a treasure chest not only enhances motivation but also cultivates a positive classroom culture where students feel empowered and encouraged to excel.
