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

My students are young and they have a lot to learn! It is a huge job to keep them focused on work and engaged all day long! They are only 5, 6, and 7 years old! I have found that these small motivational items go a long way in rewarding them for maintaining their stamina. Right now I spend over $20 a week of my own monies at the dollar store buying them motivational toys and I could really use some support in this area!

The students absolutely love to get a small trinket as a reward after an intense session of reading or math.

I can keep them focused longer because they are wanting that small toy! It is a great way to keep them totally focused on the lesson! So I look to partner with you on this project and get into the hands of my students some motivational items to keep them focused on their learning! We all remember getting that pencil, sticker or toy from a teacher and I want to keep those memories going for my students as well! I look forward to your partnership!
