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

I hope when you are reading this that you are in the best of health. I want to thank you in advance. In this project, I am asking for decorations for holidays as well as Halloween baskets, Easter baskets and our end of the year carnival materials. We like to have many celebrations in our class because life is already difficult for many of my students so we try to bring happiness and joy into their lives.

Thanksgiving is one of our big celebrations, we cook and have the families of our students come to celebrate with us and the children love when we decorate the room as well as the tables.

The parents sit with their children and eat with them. We have great conversations and we laugh a lot. We have a wonderful day

We encourage parent engagement with all of our activities the children love when their parents are celebrating with them.
