We have started a team "Wall of Fame". Originally, it was just for Language Arts, but we decided to expand it. In Language Arts, students have to make a 100% on tests to earn a spot on the Wall. For math, I decided to be a little different. My criteria are that students must have shown "Outstanding Improvement." Today, 5 of my students went up on the Wall. They had shown a tremendous amount of improvement - some as much as 50 points - from the last test. None of the students had any idea that the Wall was being expanded to include other subjects for the Wall of Fame.
Hopefully, seeing their names on the Wall of Fame will be the motivation that some students need for the year . . . . especially since progress reports go out next week!
