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 students are motivated to learn, especially after they do an excellent job on an assignment or an assessment. Since my students come to my class for Reading Intervention, I want to reward them for their effort and improvement in Reading.

With my project, I want to reward my students with prizes and certificates for their work.

I want my students to be rewarded for their work in my class. To this end, I will add fidget toys, fancy pens, and smelly pencils to my treasure box. I want a TPT gift card so I can purchase different certificates to motivate my students to continue doing a good job.
