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 students may be older kids, but their enthusiasm is as bright as ever when it comes to our classroom store. They earn points throughout the day by meeting school-wide expectations, and the excitement they show when they get to "shop" with their points is truly heartwarming. Their dedication to positive behavior and their eagerness to earn rewards make our classroom store a special part of our learning environment.

I am requesting candy, snacks, and drinks to restock our classroom store.

This store is a powerful motivator that encourages my students to stay focused and meet behavioral expectations. The ability to earn points and purchase treats creates a sense of accomplishment and pride in their hard work.

Although they are high school students, the excitement they experience when they get to choose their favorite snack or drink is priceless. It's amazing to see how such a simple incentive can inspire them to put their best foot forward every day.

Your support will help keep our classroom store fully stocked and continue to encourage positive behavior. With these snacks and drinks as rewards, my students will stay motivated, engaged, and eager to succeed.
