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.
My Project
I have the most amazing first graders! Many of them come from families with limited income, but they come to school every day eager to learn. As their teacher, I want to ensure they feel supported and valued. Can you help me provide some squishies, stickers, and fidget toys as rewards and incentives for these awesome kiddos?
Recognizing their hard work and accomplishments can really boost their confidence and keep them motivated.
I want to create a classroom where every student feels important and appreciated for who they are. By promoting positivity and giving praise, I hope to inspire my students to do their best and achieve success in school and in life. Let's make learning fun and rewarding for these incredible kids!
More than three‑quarters of students from low‑income households
