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

Hello, I am putting together a classroom store. Ideally, when students put in a lot of effort on a project or assignment, they will get rewarded with points. Points can accumulate to purchase various items from the classroom store at different prices. I am also going to be asking students what they would like to see in the store and adding to it accordingly. But to start, I have developed a list of snacks, stuffed animals, fidget toys and more. Helping me cover the funds for this project would be greatly appreciated! I have also included a few other general items for the classroom such as a projector stand, heaphones for the students to listen to videos and audio books, whiteboards and clorox whipes.
