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

The supplies I would like to purchase are for the summer enrichment program.

Social and emotional learning is my theme this summer, it's a time for students to reflect and move forward with a positive outlook.

Each student will receive their own journal and a daily positive affirmation. With the affirmation, they will create a page in their journal with mixed media inspired by the affirmation. At the end of the time, we are together, students will then choose and display their favorite pages of mixed media art from their journals.

Ms. M.
Grades 9-12
