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

Thank you so much for looking at my classroom project! I am so excited to get started on this project. I want to create birthday cups for my students filled with a small treat to help make their birthday feel extra meaningful in our classroom.

Celebrating birthdays in a simple but thoughtful way helps students feel seen, valued, and appreciated.

When students feel recognized and cared for, they are more likely to be engaged and motivated in their learning. Many of my students thrive on routines and positive reinforcement, and celebrating their birthdays in a fun, thoughtful way can boost their confidence and emotional well-being. These birthday cups will not only bring big smiles, but also help build a supportive, inclusive environment where students feel safe, connected, and ready to learn.
