There are many options for extra credit throughout the school year that vary from helping out with extra activities to answering extra credit questions correct on quizzes and tests. I also have the following extra credit option available to students:
Every semester, students can bring in 5 of the following items to earn 5 points per item to go under the homework category in the grade book. It can be 5 of the same items or 5 different items on the list. The teacher will keep track of the points turned in and used but the student is responsible for telling the teacher when to put the extra credit in the grade book.
Glue Sticks (package of 2) = 1 Point
Package of Ruled Index Cards = 1 Point
Single Subject Notebook - College Ruled = 1 Point
Tissue Box = 1 Point
These are all items that students regularly use in my classroom or ask to use on projects or to study. Thank you for your help!
