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

My 4th graders are the best! I have a relationship with each one, and they know I love them. Almost all live below the poverty line and don't come with many supplies to start the year. These items will insure they are ready to learn when August rolls around.

I teach students take notes on post-its, highlight important parts of reading passages, and help them learn what it takes to stay organized, pencils and post it chart paper.

These are strategies the kids use to be successful students as they approach middle school and high schools.
