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 amazing students work so hard to make progress. Student behavior and effort can sometimes be a hinderance for learning growth for many students. It especially has been challenging in the last couple of years due to the COVID-19 challenges. I love seeing my students confidence and abilities grow, both academically and socially. To do this, students need to be able to apply themselves behaviorally. As an AVID school, our students earn Tiger Tickets to reinforce positive behavior and effort, as well as inquiry, growth, and respect.

AVID tickets are used to purchase activities and objects, kind of like money in a store or venue.

I am always looking for activities and things that my students will enjoy to spend their tickets on. My students enjoy getting little things that they can hold. Things like the objects in the Learning Advantage Manipulative Sets, Counting & Sorting Lady Bug Math Manipulatives, Squishy Toys for Kids Party Favors, and classroom and carnival prizes, p will allow me to support their options for spending the tickets they earn for their positive actions. Additional items like stickers and Emotion Cubes will help support their behavior in ways that they do not need to purchase with their tickets.
