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

Students need a fun and exciting classroom experience. This upcoming year I hope to transform my classroom into a movie theater. I want to give my students an experience they have never had before.

My students will each have a starring role in my classroom.

I want to give my students a chance to create their own mark in their education. The press will allow for students to create their own school swag; while the Boomwhackers will showcase their musical ability and practice patience. The classroom supplies will allow me the opportunity to decorate the classroom with a movie theater theme.
