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 are curious, kind, and eager to learn. They come to school each day full of energy, ready to explore, and excited for new challenges.

The resources such as the classroom rug, ink cartridges, triangular pencils, folders will help create a more engaging, hands-on learning environment where all students can thrive.

Whether it’s through creating interactive materials, and organizational tools, each item will support their development across subjects especially in building foundational skills in reading, math, and critical thinking. These tools will also allow me to differentiate instruction and reach every learner at their level, helping them feel successful and confident in their learning journey.
