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

Hello, generous donors! I am an enthusiastic second-year teacher, and I'm thrilled to provide a dynamic learning environment for my students.

One of the ways I engage and motivate my students is through our classroom store, where they exchange earned points for snacks every Friday.

However, I have already depleted my supplies and am now purchasing snacks out of my own pocket, which is financially challenging for me. I'm reaching out for your support to replenish our classroom store with a variety of snacks that will fuel their learning and maintain their excitement.

Snacks have proven to be an effective incentive for students, especially in reading and English classes. They serve as a motivator and reward for good behavior and academic achievement, making learning more enjoyable. These snacks help boost students' morale and create a positive and engaging classroom environment.
