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

Implementing the RCA House System in my class will provide benefits that will deeply impact my students. This will create friendships and closer bonds with their peers. Each student will be assigned to a house and they can earn points that go towards their house throughout the day. I am hoping that this will motivate the students to want to do their best. Having the pom poms will create a culture of belonging.

Throughout the year, each student’s personal accomplishments will be rewarded with points that collectively count toward their house.

This gives students an opportunity to be recognized and thanked by their peers daily for their individual contributions to their house. By using these pom poms, I hope to encourage good behavior and academic success among students because they all know that those things help get them to get more points. The draw string bags will be used for each student to get a bag with their name on it. These bags will have several uses throughout the year. These bags will help keep their pom poms from getting lost as well.
