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

I teach in a Title I elementary school where most of the students come from low-income families and homes. My students are eager to learn and are excited to achieve many successes this year. I would love to contribute to student learning by rewarding them with yummy snacks/treats. These incentives will be used for students who meet their goals, as well as those who go above and beyond in the classroom. I also believe that it will create an even more positive classroom environment and thus, boost attendance to then award students for having perfect attendance.

I believe incentivizing students with snacks/treats will result in many high achievements in our classroom!
