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

This project is for basic supplies in the classroom and to help bring in more coloring projects in my class. I have noticed that students like to take a break from time to time and coloring provides a great activity. Adding in growth mindset coloring posters ads to the experience.

My goals for this project include making more projects that incorporate art and drawing in my class.

My students are great kids who want to improve both academically and emotionally. These supplies will help make sure they have the basic necessities to succeed.
