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! In our 3rd grade classroom we have implemented a rewards system for students. Students who complete tasks and do the right things throughout the week can pick a prize from our prize box. Students love this classroom store/prize box! It also helps to motivate them to complete tasks and gives them something to look forward to at the end of the week. Some of our students also benefit from things like stress balls, and fidgets through out the day. However, we are running low on materials and need to restock for our students.

We also need some cleaning materials for our room as well as stools for our small group tables.

It would mean a lot to us to get these materials and we would appreciate any help towards receiving them!
