Class Dojo 
ClassDojo helps build a strong classroom community, rewards effort, promotes school values, and cultivates a positive
culture for room 9106. Students will complete the Class Dojo sign up using their Google accounts. Students will need a
code to complete the sign-up, and Mrs. Motsinger will share this code in a computer lab one day early in the semester.

How does Class Dojo work? ​Once a student logs in and creates an avatar, Mrs. Motsinger will begin adding points to individual
Dojo accounts. Dojo points will be awarded to students for participating in class discussions, helping others, and donating supplies
to the classroom (tissues, hand sanitizer, books, etc.). Throughout the semester, students can “cash in” their Dojo points for late
homework passes and bonus points.
