I chose an award template because I believe it is
important to recognize students’ accomplishments and giving simple awards such
as these are easy to make. As we learned from Maslow, students require needs to
be met before they will show academic progress. One of those needs is
self-esteem. Awards can be given for things as simple as a student showing kindness,
following directions, or keeping their desk neat. The modification on this
template could be changed to match the students’ name and accomplishment.
Because this is so easy and quick to make, awards can be made weekly.
After saving the template, I changed the top writing
with the school’s name. Then I changed the title, Certificate of Award, to A
Special Award. The picture on the
certificate looks appropriate for 1st or 2nd grade, so I
wanted a title to match that age level. I changed the black font to a few other
colors to make it more appealing. Then I added a clip art of a gold ribbon. I
also changed who the certificate was being presented by; the principal to
teacher.
I plan to use award certificates in my classroom to
recognize the many achievements of my students as well as fostering their self-esteem.
Giving awards weekly can be challenging to keep up with so a plan should be put
in place. For example keep a list of students and set a number of students to
get a certificate each week. Rotate the students making sure they all get one
by the end of the month. Set a time each week to present the certificates.
