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

With these items my students will be able to increase their focus, engagement, and motivation in the classroom. Everyone learns differently, which is why I strongly support alternative seating and differentiated instruction. My goal is to better serve my students and meet their needs as well as creating a supportive and engaging environment. My students are special to me because every one has their strengths and unique abilities they bring with them to school each and every day. Thank you for donating and helping me achieve my goal this school year.
