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

In my classroom, I have a treasure chest that students are able to open upon earning 20 golden tickets for coming to school, persevering, working hard, progressing, and having a good character. Students come to school excited and motivated to do better every day.

With your help and generosity, I am asking YOU to be part of my students' success and help me motivate my students as they continue to learn and grow!

I am asking for Amazon gift cards so that my students are rewarded for their hard work and perseverance. These gift cards are placed in our treasure chest and individual students will be rewarded for their success. As they work hard each and every day, providing them rewards and motivational tokens will encourage my students to continue to work hard and be kind to one another.
