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

By having a colored paper and Chart Paper in the ESL (English as a Second Language) classroom, my ESL students will be able to add color to their work. Additionally, their work will be even more amazing with these new materials! My ESL students will now be able to create beautiful artwork as they complete their units of study.

For instance, after they finish their weather study, they will not need color every inch of the paper, but merely cut out the colored paper!

We will be able to display them in the classroom and make amazing posters of their great learning to display and adorn the hallways!
