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 will be able to provide my students with an even more conducive and inclusive learning environment for my students. I currently am teaching 3rd grade at a school in Chicago. My classroom is a focus on the culturally linguistic diverse students of 3rd grade. The items in this project will help my students have a more hands on type of learning while also seeing their selves in the materials provided to them. my goal in my classroom is to create an environment where students are comfortable and seen. The items in the project will aid me in that goal!
