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

My students have shown so much resiliency this past year. We never knew what the day would bring. We have had to go to remote learning too many times to count.

This day will connect back to our RethinkED curriculum.

This curriculum is focused on social and emotional learning. And tied directly to a lesson “spread a little happiness”.

These 3rd graders are hardworking, brilliant, and selfless. They give their very best everyday and I want to give them a BEST DAY EVER. They deserve all joy in the world and that's what this day will bring. Lets make some magic happen!

I think spreading joy and happiness is best for my students mental health. Lets bring some laughter back into the classroom.
