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

This year, I am using board games as one of my incentives for music class.

Boosting Motivation and Engagement: My students are highly motivated by interactive and enjoyable activities.

Using board games as rewards will inspire them to engage more deeply with their music lessons, encouraging them to work diligently and participate actively.

Encouraging Positive Behavior: By offering board games as rewards, I can reinforce positive behavior and achievements. This helps create a positive reinforcement loop, where students are motivated to excel and display enthusiasm in their music learning.

Goals for This Project:

Increase Student Engagement: By integrating board games as rewards, I aim to heighten students' interest and involvement in music lessons, ensuring they stay excited and motivated.

Promote Positive Behavior: The goal is to use games to reward and encourage good behavior and effort, fostering a positive and productive classroom environment.
