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

I absolutely love my students’ curiosity, and determination to learn despite the many challenges they face. My 4th-grade bilingual classroom is filled with bright, energetic students, many of whom are newcomers. They are learning English while continuing to develop their skills in Spanish, and they thrive when given opportunities to explore engaging, interactive lessons.

The goal of this project is to strengthen my students' confidence, foster their language development, and help them build critical skills in a fun and accessible way.

By requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) gift card, I’ll be able to purchase high-quality bilingual and sheltered English resources tailored to their unique learning needs. These materials will help me create lessons that include visuals, interactive activities, and differentiated supports to reach all learners, no matter where they are in their academic journey. My students inspire me with their persistence, and with the right resources, I know they can achieve incredible things!
