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

Positive reinforcement is used by my school to encourage students to behave and work better, personally I believe that it is a great way to incentivize my students.

Keeping my students in a clean and fun environment is in my book one of the top priorities, cleaning supplies will be used to keep desks and chairs clean, and snacks will be used to incentivize good behavior and those students going above and beyond in class and outside of it.

A thousand thanks to any and all people contributing to this project!
