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 plan to use the requested materials to create a living record of my students' learning. Students will need a book to keep their daily warmups, vocabulary references, drawings, worksheets, and other materials throughout the school year!

Students are highly encouraged, and are given time to personalize their notebooks via colors, drawings, "getting to know me" sections, stickers, and whatever else they can come up with!

This not only helps them keep track of their learning, it also brings them ownership in their learning by creating a one-of-a-kind book, all about their growth :)
