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 school is having a girls conference this April and the theme is superheroes. All of our kids are superheroes but they may forget at times or get a little off track.

What better way to keep our kiddos motivated while they work than to give them little motivation squishies that they can squeeze during testing or regular classwork to keep the stress away and keep them on task?

Not only will the squeeze help them but there are motivational words on the squishie ball to keep them rolling to an A plus!
