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 classroom store will be open at the end of every two weeks. Over these weeks, students collect tokens earned for different reasons: determination, perseverance, kindness, effort, and courage. On store days, students are eager to buy their prizes. These incentives bring joy and hope to their lives.

Most of my students have a lot of stressors that they handle outside of school.

My students range from grades Kindergarten- 5th grade, and most work below grade level. I want to help create a fun and productive learning environment for my students in all grade levels.

My students need incentives to persevere in their learning and catch up on grade level. These children need patience, care, and determination to meet their full potential. This use of prizes and positive reinforcement can also create a more positive classroom experience for all students.

It is not easy to learn grade content when you are below grade level; positive reinforcements can help students to stay on track and keep believing in themselves. Small rewards and lead to bigger accomplishments.
