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 multilingual learners are curious, hardworking, and eager to learn. Each day, they build their English skills while learning new academic content. Learning a new language takes courage, and I love watching their confidence grow as they take risks, overcome challenges, and celebrate their progress.

The candy, party favors, Play-Doh, and squishy toys will fill our classroom treasure box and provide fun incentives for reaching goals, participating, showing growth, and giving their best effort.

These small rewards can provide big motivation, encouraging my students to stay engaged and continue challenging themselves.

With a variety of prizes to choose from, every student can find something that feels special to them. Most importantly, our treasure box will help me celebrate the little victories that lead to big achievements!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
