Scratch Paper Lotto

Our curriculum, MidSchool Math,
Has a Test Trainer component that students complete daily.
This little jewel measures their growth,
So students can see how their effort in class is paying off.

The only drawback.
It's online.
And it's multiple choice.
So there is a lot of just clicking of answers.

To help combat this issue,
We started Scratch Paper Lotto.
At every table, napkin holders hold pieces of scratch paper.



Students can grab a sheet,
Work a problem out
And then place it in their respective class bucket.  


At the end of the week, 
We draw for candy.

I have been seeing so much more effort with solving problems,
And the amount of "just clicking" has decreased.  
Can't wait to see how it has affected their growth!
