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

Going into my 5th year there’s a few things that need to be replaced and helped with. A lot of my board games have missing pieces now and are unable to be used. My school ordered colored pencil but I only received 4 packs for my class of 33. It’s truly a project that is here to help bring the little ends and pieces together in our classroom! I always have a goal to make school fun and a place they want to be and I feel like I’ve done that the past 4 years and want to keep that going.

Thank you so much for considering my project!
