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

This spring, I am looking to expand my students' views on their abilities and their ideas! I am creating a mobile teacher area, plus engaging my students in some great reading that will allow them to grow in and out of the classroom.

If I can expand my students' thinking, the possibilities are endless.

These books will become a part of a spring semester intensive that fuses AVID strategies with life skill preparation to help support their college and high school classes. I am excited about watching my students' growth!
