Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 478

Streak Celebrations are Monumental! Each Friday, students excitedly walk down the hall to the Streak Hallway where they are celebrated for their hard work and perseverance in their iReady Reading lessons. Students earn a "streak" when they pass reading lessons in a row, without failing a single lesson. Some students are on track to pass 100 lessons in a row by the end of this school year. That motivation comes from the generous donation of Lifesize Monuments and Certificate Paper from Publix Supermarkets and Sucoast Credit Union. We are so grateful for this engaging monument tribute, which has our students talking about which monument they will be signing next, when they meet their goals!

Original Grant Overview

Goal

Our goal is to celebrate students who pass milestones of reading lessons. Students work hard to succeed in iReady Reading Lessons. We'd like to recognize their efforts by creating a celebration procedure for students who pass a certain amount of lessons in a row. 

 

What will be done with my students

When students pass increments of 10 iReady lessons in a row, they will be sent to the STEAK Celebration hallway to be recognized for their success. Students will be given a certificate by their teacher for their Leadership Notebook, sign a displayed world monument (which correlates to our school-wide theme) and be given a brag tag for their lanyard. Students will be hired to organize and celebrate peers as they reach these milestones.  

 

Benefits to my students

All K-5 students will receive public recognition as they walk down the hall to celebrate their success of reaching their Reading milestone. Weekly celebration will be held at the STREAK Celebration Hallway to congratulate their hard work.

Thank you for your consideration.  

 

Budget Narrative

Colored Paper for STREAK Certificates which will celebrate all students K-5 each time they meet a milestone. Ideally, all 478 students will meet a minimum of a 10 streak and 20 streak which equals almost 1,000 sheets of paper. Additionally, many students will meet milestones between 30-150 lessons passed in a row, as replicated in years past. Each year we celebrate students, we seem to grow more students meeting higher milestones.

Paper: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B009NKTYFA/ref=ewc_pr_img_8?smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER&psc=1 x7 (variety of colors of 50 sheets or 100 sheets)

https://smile.amazon.com/dp/B01JH3LNL0/ref=twister_B016AJNA10?_encoding=UTF8&th=1 X1

Other items in budget narrative are brag tags from school life which can be added to the student's media center lanyard as well as life-sized cardboard cut outs, which students are invited to come to a public hallway to sign their name on to be recognized and feel the accomplishment of meeting their goal.
We are a Leader in Me School so students would lead the celebration and excitement during this public recognition weekly.
