I implemented a way to motivate Jose, (and all the other students in the class), to do his math minute! For the past two weeks, Jose has done every single math minute – 10 total. My motivator is a prize drawing that students can enter their name into if they do the math minute every day for a week. The math minutes are started on Friday and go throught Thursday; students turn in their math minutes on Thrusday, I check them that night, and on Friday we enter all of students who receive 100% into the prize drawing/ “Math Bucket”….. Getting 100% is “easy” because we correct all of the problems together as a class each day, and if they get an answer wrong and correct it – they still get 100%. The first prize drawing is tomorrow, and all of the students are sooooo excited — me too!

Nice work teach!
Maybe I should try something like that with my writing assignments.
