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

Working with students from K-6 is so much fun because you get to work with all group ages.

These materials will help make a difference in their learning by having the tools available to them to succeed.

The dry erase markers will be used to practice spelling and writing proper sentences on white boards.

The paint will be very useful when we work on class projects or are creating our bulletin board outside of our classroom. The bulletin board paper and boarders will be used for these projects as well.

The snacks and fidget toys will be used to fill the treasure box and used for motivation. Students will get the chance to earn a prize every Friday.

The jump ropes will be used during recess time. Having these will help the students be more excited about going outside to play.
