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 love working with my students because they are curious and creative. Each of them has a unique way of seeing the world, and I am thrilled to help them discover and learn in a fun way.

With the resources I have selected, I want my students to feel immersed in the safari environment.

By interacting with these materials, they will be able to explore and learn in a more active way. Additionally, by staying up-to-date with the latest educational advancements, we can spark their interest and ensure they remain motivated in their learning.

These resources are designed to foster curiosity and a love for learning in a fun and engaging environment. I am confident that these elements will make learning more meaninful and accesible for all students.
