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
I strive to create a positive learning environment for my students. I also help my students to learn about being responsible. Desk Pets are a great way to combine the two. I reward my students with desk pets and then they work to create a habitat for their pets.
The desk pet habitats are small plastic containers, students earn items such as food (food-shaped erasers) to give to their pets.
I create a desk pet store where students can shop each week for items for their pets. Students love their class desk pets and being able to create their desk pet homes.
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
