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 bookcase, notebooks, paper, and prizes will provide my students with lots of opportunities to engage in their learning. The bookcase will provide them with an organized space to get books and art supplies, for activities and reading time. The prizes would help motivate my students to be on time to class and actively participate in class daily.

The goal of the items purchased is to help encourage students to read, write more, participate in daily activities, in addition to helping remind them of the importance of being on time for class.

We all need encouragement and motivation to do well and participate in a safe environment. I have noticed my students are more willing to participate and get out of their comfort zone when they can win prizes.

My students are extraordinary people because they are always ready for a challenge and love to learn new things about other countries and people.
