Earn some Ro-Bucks!
July 28, 2010
As mentioned in class yesterday, there’s a new incentive in town… Ro-Bucks! Similar to regular dollars, we will use these as part of a system to make the classroom better.
Do you have your own idea of what the next challenge should be?
Want your say in something that involves the entire class?
Do you want to be the most Ro-Buck-rich kid in class, proof of your amazing robot skills?
If I see you in class working well with others, helping out other teams, leading your teammates towards a completed robot, or just generally doing an excellent job in class, you’ll receive a complimentary Ro-Buck! The person with either a certain amount of Ro-Bucks at the end of each week gets special praise during class and the chance for other cool benefits.
Everyone’s doing a great job, let’s keep it up!
