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

In my cart I have added treats, snacks, and prizes for our classroom store. Students love earning positive behavior points to be able to get fun items in the store. I also have containers to keep everything organized and toiletries to start a student center where students can grab necessities they might need. The chips ahoy is for an excavating project and the clay is for a cuneiform project! I also added a rug and small couch to make the classroom feel homier. Further, I added Flocabulary and teachers pay teachers gift card purchase curricular materials to enrich the social studies curriculum!
