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

My students come from a diverse, inclusive neighborhood located in the heart of the southeast part of our city. The close-knit community of families and the school’s highly educated faculty work collaboratively to provide an environment that fosters each child’s development and success.

This health and wellness project was created to give my students the recess and brain breaks they enjoy outside from the rigorous work we do in the classroom, while still promoting healthy brain development and social emotional learning.

On this list are some of their favorite things to do that provide exercise and movement. Their love for competitive games like Connect Four and Jenga bring them together in other ways outside of the classroom. These games will provide joy for many hours to be used in and outside of our classroom.

Every single one of my students deserve these small things that will aid in getting them through some of the most difficult times in education right now. I hope you can support my project and bring smiles to all my students.
