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 resilient problem solvers and have worked incredibly hard all year to reach their academic goals. As the testing season quickly approaches, it is easy for many students to feel overwhelmed and quickly burn out. Providing pencils, erasers, and nutritious snacks will help meet their basic needs as students and remove the unnecessary stress that finding access to materials can create. The additional treats and stickers will be used as rewards of a points system to help students remain motivated and offer them a tangible weekly goal to work toward.
