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 will be using these materials - projector, screen, theatre activities and speaker - to support students in their ability to access content, learn skills, and approach standards.

Students are learning how to be effective speakers, listeners, and team members.

They are learning how to identify and express emotions, reflect and adapt approaches, and work through challenges with reading. Students are becoming confident and I am teaching them how to be calm in their own skin and feel a sense of confidence.

We will be using these tools to instruct, learn, and perform! You are making materials accessible.
