We've seen posts about the Super Improvers Wall...but nothing could have prepared me for what I have seen in the past two months. My students are all pumped up because they are moving up the wall with the goal of becoming a Living Legend. I now have 12 students who are Living Legends...and they are so proud...and frankly, so am I!
If you're new to this concept, you must be asking what am I giving these kids to be so motivated to improve? All I am giving them is a star on a piece of paper! Yes, that's what I said...a star on a piece of paper which transfers to moving up the wall after 10 stars. These kids are working so hard to improve in all areas of school; academics, personal behavior, better writing, whatever they need.
All I can say is if your not using this, what are you waiting for?
I cannot imagine my class without it!!
ReplyDeleteYou comment about a star on a piece of paper ... has been my mantra this week. I just CAN'T believe how motivated my students are for those SUPER IMPROVER STARS!
