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

Our students were impacted by COVID when many had to learn from home. Our students are now behind in their learning and need many tools to help them learn to read, write, and perform well in math. Help us make this year an even better year for learning in our classroom.

We will use the book bins to sort books and help students find books they love to read.

Our name tags will be tools to help us learn during Reading, Writing, and Math class. Students will love to learn again!
