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 Students

My students come from an urban area with diverse backgrounds, so they are facing the challenge of learning English as well as maintaining their home language. This can be frustrating for anyone, so it is highly important that they are afforded a classroom environment that promotes their learning and well being.

They are enthusiastic, ambitious and motivated learners.

I wish for each one of my students to have the opportunities that they so rightfully deserve in an environment that provides ample and worthwhile learning experiences.

My Project

Students need to be in a classroom environment where their health is a top priority. I have requested tissues for all those times that my students sneeze, cough or have a runny nose. My students will use the requested hand soap, hand sanitizer, and paper towels to wash away any germs, and when they soil their hands from painting, coloring or exploring with sand and play doh. There's always a fun mess taking place on a daily basis with young learners.

Students learn best when they are feeling their best.

A variety of juices and snacks will give my students the extra boost of energy they need to start and conquer their day. Their well being is what matters most, and with that their learning will strive forward.
