Crunch Time

Help me give my students crunch time rewards to start a new year

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Tavarez's classroom raised $514

This project is fully funded

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

Students have made it to the start of a new year. I would like to give them a boost of serotonin so that they are incentivized to begin the year strongly. Students love snacks more than anything. Throughout previous years, it is something that they have always looked forward to. Student engagement is multidimensional. It affects cognitive, emotional, and behavioral involvement in learning. By supplying students with snacks, they are more prone to be eagerly engaged in learning and will have something to look forward to once they have completed their assignments.

Ms. Tavarez Miami Southridge Senior High School Grades 9-12

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
