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

Our classroom is filled with inquisitive young learners. By giving them tools to fuel their imagination we can create creative writers. Some of these awesome journals will allow them to draw their thoughts and then use their words to write them down. Adding color to their beautiful pictures makes the whole experience even more fun.

The pretend play career costumes will allow our students to think of their future careers and explore their interest.

Potentially setting goals for their future accomplishments. Opening the door for the future officers, doctors, gardeners and fireman of our communities.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
