I teach in an elementary school and we used to have school wide celebrations for students who have met their Reading and Math goals. Now it is left up to the teacher but it has to be done during the students scheduled Activity time. I feel that some students could be more motivated if the fun was brought back to our elementary school. How do I get my principal to understand this? Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!) I think it is important to talk with the principal as well as other teachers. If it has to be scheduled during the activity time I would talk with a couple of teacher and maybe have the students who didn't make the Reading/math goals go to a different classroom and have one teacher take the rest of the students out so they can enjoy their reward. If that doesn't work I would ask and see if you could arrange with the principal to do something every other Friday.. just something different.
