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

Children naturally love to move and fidget. I would love to channel that energy into focused learning and help students to succeed.

I want to provide a treasure box filled with various fidgets to motivate participation.

This will be a major part of my behavior plan. When students meet goals, stay on task, and demonstrate classroom expectations, these prizes can help them feel a sense of accomplishment. They also may provide students with ways to calm themselves when feeling anxious or overwhelmed.

Please help make my 3rd grade classroom a place where effort, kindness, and growth are celebrated. Small rewards go a long way in building a positive classroom culture.
