Celebrating 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.
Our Title I school is blessed with a culturally rich, diverse population, with 92% of students qualifying for free or reduced-price lunches, and a high concentration of English language learners. Sean Junkins' quote, "So often you find that the students you're trying to INSPIRE are the ones that end up inspiring you," applies to my classroom every day.
Our students have generous hearts that will change the world if they are given opportunities to share their passions and learning with others.
They will inspire you, as they inspire me each day.
My Project
Our first grade students work hard at school to develop academic skills. Financial literacy is a life skill that all students would benefit from developing.
We are requesting the junior edition of the classic board game, Monopoly, to develop financial literacy among our students and their families.
Students learn best with they are engaged in hands-on experiences. This board game will provide hours of fun and practice with buying, saving and earning money. The junior edition of this classic game features single-digit banknotes for easier transactions for our young students.
The Hasbro company states, ¨Monopoly Junior is a kid-friendly version of the classic board game you know and love. With single-digit bank notes for easier transactions and four adorable new tokens, kids will have a blast learning to count money and buy child-approved property such as an ice cream parlor or skate park." We are eager for our students to develop these critical skills.
