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

Hello, in this project I am kindly requesting items that will motivate students to pass reading lessons and reach goals. Students love challenges and they love them even more when snacks are involved! These snacks will serve as incentives to passing reading lessons and improving their literacy scores. The students will learn in the process and be rewarded both with knowledge and some delicious snacks. Some of the items I have requested are Gummy butterflies. chocolates, chips, sour belts. The pens will also be used as incentives since students love felt pens.

Thanks in advance for your support in making this project a reality!
