Do you give your students awards and certificates at the end of the semester and at the end of
the school year?
That's great, but you are missing an important opportunity to positively reinforce your
students if you only select these times of the year to present your students with awards
that they can take home to share with their parents.
Some students never receive an award at end of the year awards assemblies. Imagine how these students feel year after year when they know that they will never receive a recognition award during the school year.
It is important to recognize improvement and achievement in your students who are struggling with the curriculum or performing below grade level.
When you give an award to a lower achieving student, you boost his or her confidence level. During the rest of the school year, that student is more likely to continue working hard, or even harder, in that academic area.
I encourage you to try handing out student achievement awards once a week at the end of the school week. When you recognize, notice, and reward students' small achievements, as well as their large achievements, you are far more likely to see your students continue to work hard during the rest of the school year.
Your students' parents will appreciate this extra effort on your part as well!

If you are looking for student awards and certificates that you can use
throughout the school year, then you have found the right place to find
unique student certificates to positively reinforce your students for
their achievements and improvement!
On this set of awards pages, you will find a variety of certificates to present to
your students in a variety of different subject areas and school related themes. For
each award, there is a color copy of the certificate, as well as a black and
white copy.
Each of my student awards is designed with a large border so that it is easy
for you to cut it out. To make it seem more official and important, I like to
laminate my students' certificates before I hand them out.
Below you will find examples of the awards and certificates that are
available on Unique Teaching Resources.
Each of the boxes below contains a small picture of my different student award certificates.
If you click on the underlined link at the bottom of each box, you will be taken to a web page that describes that award in more detail and you will be able to view a larger picture of the award certificate.

Thank you for visiting my Awards and Certificates page.
Please be sure to check out the other pages on Unique
Teaching Resources for a large variety of fun lesson plan activities
that will engage your students in learning and save you valuable time.

I stumbled across your website over the weekend and I'm SO glad I did! Some great ideas and an extra thank you for the UK spellings! I bought the back to school pencils, punctuation puppies, Willy Wonka group project and the characters! I think these are great resources and even though it's the summer holidays, I've been into school to get my display paper up and have put up the title banners - they look brilliant! Thank you!

I love all your powerpoints. I used the Halloween one for my observation/evaluation this year and have never received better scores. All of the students were participating and loved having their names in the sentences. Your powerpoints made me look great in front of my principal. She is now sharing your website with other teachers on our staff. Keep up the great work.

Heidi, I just had to write and let you know that your website has helped me create the most awesome author study of Roald Dahl's books. My students loved completing the big animal shaped projects you designed for The Enormous Crocodile, Esio Trot, and The Giraffe, and the Pelly and Me. For the final project, they had so much fun writing and drawing about the characters from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory using your Willy Wonka Factory project. Thanks for sharing your scrumdiddlyumptious ideas !

I can honestly say that I have never had such great results from children with a book report as I did using this wanted poster book report activity. I was blown away and the parents who have seen the finished projects were amazed too. Thank you! I will definitely log on again to see your other products and your after sales service is awesome, thanks again. Very much appreciated.

Your lesson plans for Stellaluna, Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving, and How the Grinch Stole Christmas have saved me so much planning time this year. My Gr. 3 students really enjoyed completing the projects that you designed for each of these books. I was able to create great Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas displays in my classroom this year with their projects. Thanks for sharing your ideas and for saving me time.

My students loved your seasonal powerpoint games for Halloween and Thanksgiving. They thought they were playing a game instead of reviewing grammar ;-) I've already purchased all of your other holiday powerpoint lesson plans. Keep making more of these great activities, more POWER to you Heidi!

I want to write and tell you that I love the resources that you make and share with us, they have truly been helpful to me and my students. I have been teaching grammar rules in a more exciting way, and I owe it all to you. Your grammar powerpoint lessons have been such a blessing! Thank you very much!

I feel so fortunate to have found your website and I have referred several of my co-workers to your website. Just for the month of January, there were three teachers displaying your book reports. I had the trophy reports, my neighbor to the left had the computer reports, and my neighbor to the right had the birthday cake reports. Thank you so very much for all of your work!

I just wanted to say thank you for the most amazing teaching resources that I have ever come across in my thirty years of teaching. I have used many of your book report sets this year and my students absolutely loved them. What was particularly pleasing was seeing some of my reluctant readers (especially the boys) really wanting to read books and complete the activities. Keep up the great work!

My students are working on their Charlie and Chocolate Factory projects that I bought on your website. One of my students said how nice the other character wheels were and he said, "Besides this is just fun!" Not bad for a third grade boy!!

I'm writing to tell you that my students just finished the Charlie and the Chocolate Factory group projects. They worked so hard, and the Willy Wonka Chocolate Factory projects turned out great! We had them to show for student led conferences. The parents were very impressed, and so were many of the other teachers and my principal. They all commented on my students' work and your creative templates. My students had so much fun doing these projects.
