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 have 22 students in my main class. They are a fun loving group who appreciate holiday decorations, special pencils, fun name tags and games! The items I selected will make our classroom bright and fun again. Some of us have the mid-year doldrums!

A classroom decoration refresher is just what we need to kick off the second half of the year with a renewed sense of excitement and purpose.

A welcome door awning will make the room look more cozy. At their desks will be new nametags. Specialty pencils will be given our for birthdays and good work! Stickers are always a big hit no matter what age they are!
