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

In our third-grade classroom, we’re building a love for reading and writing every single day. To keep students motivated and excited about their literacy journey, we’re requesting a variety of individually wrapped candies to use as rewards and incentives. These sweet treats will celebrate students’ accomplishments—whether it’s finishing a challenging chapter book, improving their writing, or reaching a personal reading goal.

The bulk candy variety packs, including Jolly Ranchers, Skittles, Mars Minis, and Sour Punch Twists, will allow us to create a fun and engaging reward system that keeps students striving for success.

With your support, we can inspire our young readers and writers to stay focused, work hard, and feel proud of their progress.
