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 Students

My students are always full of energy and ready to learn as they walk into my classroom. They continuously inspire me with their ability to take on new challenges with a positive mindset.

Curiosity, inquisitive minds, and eagerness to learn well describe my second graders!

All of my students come from different backgrounds. Some of my students have the ability to bring the necessary items to meet their learning needs, while other students encounter challenges. However, they all have one common goal which is to learn.

My Project

Sometimes, we all need a little motivation to keep working. Therefore, I would like to be able to provide that motivation to my students with these assorted prizes.

My students will be motivated with these prizes for reading and earning AR points.

These assorted prizes range from mini pop fidget toys, bookmarks, wristbands, assorted balls, sensory toys and many other things. My students are hard working and I want to be able to reward them for their dedication and efforts in school.

I know these prizes will motivate them to continue doing their best.
