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

The PBIS store will foster confidence, resilience, and a love for learning, helping my students achieve their full potential both in and out of the classroom. My students are truly extraordinary, bringing unique energy and determination to the classroom despite the challenges they face. They thrive when provided with the right tools and encouragement, and this project will motivate them to continue striving for excellence. By celebrating their positive behaviors, we can create a supportive environment where they feel valued and inspired to grow.

The items I’m requesting, such as sensory toys, toy cars, and coloring books, will have a direct impact on my students’ learning by serving as meaningful motivators for positive behavior.

Sensory toys will help them self-regulate and focus, while coloring books and toy cars encourage creativity and imaginative play. These rewards will reinforce the principles of our PBIS program and make a lasting difference by supporting their social, emotional, and academic growth.
