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

These sensory items and other fun stuff will be used to motivate students to do their homework, study for tests, and be the best student they can be. They will be used to replenish our class store that they absolutely love to visit at the end of each month. After paying their rent, paying applicable no homework fees, receiving bonuses for good grades, and receiving their monthly salary for their class jobs, students eagerly go shopping or save up for next time!

Rent and fees do not scare my students; they avoid the fees, plan for rent and save their salaries and bonuses for shopping time!

My students are eager to follow rules, demonstrate responsibility, and work hard in order to earn class money and visit our store.
