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

These materials will be used to hand out on students birthdays. I am big on celebrating my students and making them feel special. I would love to be able to give them something special on their day. I will create a goodie bag for my students and make them a crown to wear proudly for everyone in the school to see.

Students should be celebrated on their birthdays!

It makes them feel happy and it even creates a better classroom environment and brings the students together. The students will benefit from the supplies by receiving a happy surprise on their birthday. While they wear the crown, they can be celebrated by their classmates promoting a better classroom environment and SEL. I know everything will make them feel seen and appreciated.
