Student Gift Ideas for Testing, Positive Reinforcement, Motivation
Throughout the school year I like to surprise students with a little something extra special to recognize their hard work and effort, improved behavior, achievement of a milestone, or to celebrate the completion of a big project on which they worked very hard or testing/assessment. You would be surprised how much a simple trinket with a positive, encouraging note means to a young child and how important it is to them that you noticed their efforts. I have even given a few to fellow teachers who have helped or inspired me or just need a smile and to know someone cares.
