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

Many speech-language pathologists and caregivers, including myself, use reward systems, meaning the child earns extrinsic rewards like special/preferred interest items/toys, stickers, food, movement/sensory “breaks” to increase motivation.

Students get one sticker if they are basically good for their speech time.

When they land on the pink line on the chart, they get to go into the treasure chest and choose a prize. For my students, they are pretty motivated to earn stickers in their session. Essentially, students get a prize once a month if they attend and work hard in speech. I have always been pleasantly surprised by this simple incentive. Some of my students have more challenging behavioral problems, and I use whatever works for them. I often consult with the teacher and other staff for this, but usually my own reward system works well.

These stickers would be such a benefit for our students to help them increase their motivation.
