Dino-Mite Literacy Adventures

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

In our classroom, we believe that a creative and engaging environment helps students get excited about learning and literacy is at the heart of everything we do. To make our space even more inspiring, we’re requesting dinosaur-themed items like a Jurassic Park lamp, vintage T-Rex posters, a fun dinosaur tape dispenser, and a playful badge clip.

These additions will transform our classroom into a vibrant, welcoming space where students feel motivated to read, write, and explore new ideas.

The themed décor will tie into literacy activities, encouraging students to create their own dinosaur stories, write about prehistoric adventures, and engage in reading about the fascinating world of dinosaurs.

With your support, we can make our literacy-rich classroom a place where imagination roars to life!
