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 students are tech savvy and have a love of learning! They are always listening to stories being read to them or using ear buds to help them read a new word. During math, they are able to watch a video on something that they haven't quite mastered, and during language arts, they are able to hear stories.

We need to earbuds to make sure each of us have a set, and incentives to keep us motivated!

These ear buds are a great tool for each of my students to have: to aid in taking learning to a new level, and to keep their interests peaked. Additionally, every day, my students earn blue tickets. With these blue tickets, they can go to our student store, or win in our weekly raffle! These cool prizes help keep that store and treasure box fully stocked!
