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 love my students’ curiosity and love for learning. These qualities make them special in their own unique ways. The suggested resources will make learning more engaging and accessible for students. They will be able to access and incorporate high quality learning materials and technology into their everyday learning.

Items like the headphones will help to make this possible while other resources such as the “On Strike” book set will reinforce respect for shared materials and property and teach empathy, a life skill essential for all humans to thrive.

Lastly, every day resources like pencils, markers, and more will make learning easily accessible for us daily.

Thank you in advance for your kindness and for thinking of us.
