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

Our project is to support our 5th grade classroom's rewards program. The program motivates students and keeps them engaged in their learning. Rewards such as fidget toys, sweet treats, tic tac toe key chains, stickers, stretchy man, and wacky tracks fidgets help reinforce positive behavior and active participation in lessons. When students are excited about learning, they stay focused, work harder, and collaborate better. Your support will help create a fun, encouraging classroom environment where all students feel motivated to succeed.

Both teachers and students will appreciate your generosity, thank you!
