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

Each day, the students at my school come in ready to learn, help one another, and try their best. I want to give them access to engaging and meaningful materials that match their interests and learning levels- because they deserve nothing less. Resources from Teachers Pay Teachers will help me create exciting lessons that meet students where they are, whether it is reinforcing a tricky concept or digging deeper into a subject they love.

This project will allow me to support both my current and former students in powerful ways.

With this project, I'll be able to purchase differentiated materials for my small group literacy groups, such as reading guides, comprehension activities, and vocabulary tools that align with the specific books we're reading together. I also want to give back to parents in my past classes who create their own resources on TPT by purchasing their materials. This project brings learning full circle- supporting my classroom, my former students, and fellow educators all at once.
