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

What I love about my students is that they are eager to learn. They come to school with lots of energy. My students come from diverse backgrounds and many speak another language at home.

My goals for this project are to provide my students with essential school supplies so that they can practice and solidify their learning.

We will use the pencils and dry erase markers in all content areas. Students will use the pencils in all subject areas, including thematic subjects. Students will use the dry erase markers for phonics dictation, during math and for directed drawings.
