What to Put on a Classroom Certificate
- Student name — spelled exactly right, it's the part they keep.
- The award — achievement, effort, attendance: name the real thing.
- Specific reason — “improved 20% on math quizzes” beats “good job”.
- Date + teacher signature — both make it feel official.
Awards Students Actually Care About
- Name the result, not the trait — “raised their reading level by two grades” lands harder than “great reader”.
- Use one accent color — a clean border in school colors reads real without clutter.
- Batch them — make a whole class set in one sitting and keep spares.
