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

This project is intended to provide a variety of positive outcomes to these students. Being a Title I school, we do not always have additional resources, like fancy paper and enough pens, to enrich learning experiences. The fidgets are classroom must haves to help keep students engaged and focused in their learning. The paper and pens are so these students can create unique and realistic projects from ancient times. With students going off to junior high, it would be exciting to be able to provide them with a binded book of some of their excellent work to keep. These materials help to provide more resources to these students in ways that typically would not be possible.
