My Project

My students earn classroom tickets (money) to buy things from our school store. They earn tickets buy following classroom expectations and by being a good human. They can owe tickets by not following the classroom expectations.

We are in a Title I school so our students don't always come with snacks.

I have included some snacks that I can share with my students if they do not have one. Studies have shown that if students are hungry, they are not learning.

I also have flexible seating so they get to sit where they want during independent work time.

Mrs. Knudsen will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by April 27.
