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 work really hard each and every day in the classroom. This project is full of prizes and rewards that I can give to my students when they are demonstrating positive behavior in the classroom. It also includes classroom supplies that bring bright colors and happiness in the room.

Positive incentives will support my classroom by giving my students motivation to make good choices and work to earn prizes.

I want to ensure that my classroom is built around positivity and support my students to be responsible. If you support my classroom, you will help me build that classroom vision for this upcoming year.

Mrs. P. IS 77 Joseph F Quinn School Grades 6-8
