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

Incentives are a great way to reward and motivate students who have made improvements in their attendance. The smallest reward such as the bubble wand can let my students know that their improvement is seen by their teachers. The students at my school deserve to be recognized for their efforts and dedication to their education. Research shows that when students miss less school, they are likely to graduate from high school. Help me give my students the opportunity to succeed by keeping them motivated and focused on coming to school with a variety of evidence!
