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

Teaching my students about kindness and how to show compassion for others is vital. We are currently reading the novel Wonder by R. J. Palacio. I love how intrigued they are as they feel compassion towards the main character, Auggie. I want to purchase Teacher Pay Teacher activities that will have students engaged in interactive activities as well as motivating my students about spreading kindness. My kiddos will engage in discussions about the main character, the importance of choosing kindness, and the impact of our actions. Students will be encouraged to reflect on their own experiences and connect them to the themes and messages in Wonder. The activities used with the TPT gift-cards will be hands on activities that will have them participate in different lessons where they will learn about showing kindness and compassion towards others.

In a world where you can anything be KIND—

I will access their understanding by seeing how they express themselves about the themes in the book such as bullying, fitting in, diversity, and how to be kind. Students will be able to use our special “chair/stool” when caught being compassionate or showing kindness. Bulletin board will be displayed and students will write positive messages about ways to be kind, and showing compassion.
