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

As a second-grade teacher, I am always looking for creative ways to motivate, support, and celebrate my students' hard work and progress. This project will help provide a variety of exciting, kid-friendly incentives and materials that support classroom engagement, positive behavior, and joy in learning.

My students thrive when they are recognized for their efforts, and these fun items will be used to fill our class treasure box, support special events, and reward academic and social accomplishments.

Whether it’s a NeeDoh sensory fidget bear to help with focus and calming, mini drawing boards to spark creativity, or glow bracelets for an end-of-year celebration, each item will bring a smile to my students’ faces and encourage their continued success.

With your generous support, this project will provide:

Sensory fidget toys to help students stay calm and focused.

Mini drawing boards and coloring books to encourage creativity and mindfulness. Glow sticks, erasers, and globe keychains for classroom celebrations and learning incentives. Colorful paper gift bags to create memorable take-home goodie bags for end-of-year or seasonal events.

These materials will help me build a positive, engaging classroom environment where every student feels celebrated and valued. Your support will not only provide these tangible rewards but also send a powerful message that their efforts matter.

Thank you for helping me
