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

I teach an active group of 2nd graders. They are quite diverse and come from all walks of life. I have a total of 27 students this year and I am working on making our class a little community that is able to run smoothly and learn at the same time.

I am using a money system in class where students each have jobs that they get paid for weekly.

They can use this money to buy items from our school store such as little toy prizes.

In order to stock the store I am asking for your help to fund our project with prizes and supplies I can add to the school store.
