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

My upper grade students are losing interest on the current incentives that we have for them. Grades, behavior, personal decisions and modifiable behavior are all important, but how to we enhance their interest?

Sometimes they need a visual, a valuable incentive that is going to help them increase their chances of changing the way they are making decisions.

No one wants to behave negatively and we want to help them have an idea of what they can earn if they make better decisions. They love sports, this is a great way to inspire them for now and the future.
