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 school is a welcoming community-based, neighborhood school serving a diverse group of students and their families. With over twenty different languages represented in our building, we are proud to be one of the most diverse schools in the United States. We are a Title I school where the staff and students take pride in our diversity and community support. Our staff is dedicated to the continuing academic success and the social and emotional growth of all students. Our school challenges its students to make good choices, expect respect, and strive for excellence. Our students are some of the kindest, most loving, and generous students you will meet. In addition to that, these students deal with many issues at home. They overcome poverty, language barriers, and cultural barriers on a daily basis. As a school community, the staff does all it can to support our students and show them the love they deserve.
My Project
These gifts will make such a huge difference for our kids. These gift cards will be used as prizes to reward students who are present and actively engaged in the lessons. Students will be able to choose their prizes with their gift card.
These gift cards will help encourage and praise them for participating in daily lessons and activities.
It will motivate them to strive for better. I believe in compensation for hard work and hard work pays off. I usually have some sort of reward system set up for my students whether it is a class party or extra recess, but with remote instruction it makes it difficult. Since that isn't an option these gift cards are something that can use to have weekly, bi-weekly, and monthly contests. Incentives motivate them to try harder, ask for help, and be engaged in their learning. These gift cards can be used by the students to buy meaningful things like books that peak their interest.
