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 use of the Bubble Pop, Tic-Tac-toe and all the items is for getting rewards for their learning and participation in Art of Thinking class.

By donating to this project, you will not only help to improve and increase student confidence and motivation, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement and make them more successful in their learning.

Students will be able to stay focused and engaged through out the lessons. With the help of this they get a feeling of belongingness in the class and they will keep participating in the lesson.
