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

Our school year is almost over, it has been a long and difficult year. Our students have worked hard to keep their grades up and many of them attend our after-school program for extra tutoring. This project will help us create a fun PBIS event using water balloons.

I want to celebrate my students' achievements by having a water day where they can enjoy being outside enjoying the fresh air and hanging out with friends made during the school year.

These water balloons will help give our students a great reward for all of their achievements this year. Some of their successes include improving their reading and Achieve reading levels.
