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

The items will make a difference in the student's learning in a variety of ways. One way this project will make a difference in the students' learning is by providing them with the prizes and snacks that will motivate them to work to their fullest potential. After a student gets a certain amount of stickers or after the class gets a certain amount of tokens for following the rules, the students will receive a prize such as the Takis, Rubik's cubes, and other party pack favors.

Another way this project will make a different in the students' learning is by giving students the supplies that they need in order to be successful and stay organized, such as clear paper protectors, notebooks, folders, and binders to keep track of their work.

The digital clock will be used to help students keep track of the time in the classroom, as our classroom doesn't have a clock. This will allow them to see how much time they have left to complete assignments before the period ends.
