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

My students are creative and hands on learners. They all enjoy painting and they love music. Giving them the oppourtunity to engage in music during brain breaks will make these breaks more fun and interactive for them. My students also love to get messy and create art projects! These items will help them express their creative natures and will give them the items needed in order to be able to fulfill their sensory needs. My school is located I a low socioeconomic neighborhood I want to be able to provide my students with all of the resources they need to be succesful.
