Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

ART is fun. I want to create a cohesive community by having a reward system. Students will earn tickets and stamps toward prizes once per month.

I will have low-level prizes (granola bars and fruit gummies) and higher-level prizes (drawing pencils and small mascot stuffed animals) to accommodate the whole community.

These incentives will help build classroom communities and peer mentoring. By using a positive reward system the students learn from others what a successful classroom looks like in ART.

Please support the Art is FUN project.
