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 first-grade students are truly special due to their unique strengths and diverse backgrounds, all driven by a natural curiosity for learning. By equipping them with the right materials, we can nurture their creativity. Having essential supplies like construction paper, cardstock paper, copy paper, and colored paper will greatly enhance their learning experiences.

Construction paper, cardstock paper, and colored paper will be used for student artwork, allowing them to express themselves creatively.

Copy paper will provide the necessary resources for creating worksheets and learning materials, helping to reinforce key concepts.

Providing these paper supplies will create an engaging environment where my students can collaborate on projects and strengthen their understanding of various topics. With these supplies, I aim to create a classroom where every student can thrive and reach their full potential.
