Classroom RewardsGroup Goal Chart

You will earn a sticker for every day that your clip is on “Great,” or higher.

Once the class reaches their goal there will be a special class reward. The faster you meet your goals the more special rewards we will get.

If you have stickers for every school day of the month you’ll get to choose and additional prize.

For every day that you turn in ALL of your homework completed you will get a ticket to put in for a prize raffle. The more homework you turn in the more tickets you’ll get and the better your chances of winning a prize. If you don’t complete your homework at home you will need to take it to the cafeteria and complete it there.
