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

At M. Elementary, we push a reading application called Achieve 3,000 for our 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students. Our students read up-to-date articles on the application and then take a short quiz on the material. Students who make a 75 or higher earn 1 activity. After students earn 25,50,75,100,125, etc. activities receive a prize, and their name goes on the morning announcements. The desired items on this list go into small gift bags and are handed out daily to winners.

I received a donation at the beginning of the year for these prizes but now I am low on items and my students are still aggressively reading the articles.

I need to replenish the items that I give out to them.

Please, please help me!
