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 love earning prizes and so does my team. We are working on ways to incorporate different ways of prizes. They love seeing vending machines and prize machines around in public.

Having a prize machine with capsule prizes will be a great addition to the classroom to use not only for my students, but my team of students for positive behavior.

They love earning different little trinkets, and this would be a new idea for a prize bin! The students would love this and would love to earn coins to earn their prize.
