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

Teachers Pay Teachers is my new go-to when it comes to my students' learning! The number of great resources I have been able to purchase from Teachers Pay Teachers is priceless, but unfortunately priceless means costly as well.

I have not only found so many amazing resources that I can utilize with my special needs students during small groups, but have also found amazing themed resources for my students to utilize at home with their families as well!

I am requesting a Teachers Pay Teachers gift card to not only support my fellow educators, but also to support my students for at-home learning. Not only would I love to be able to support my students at-home learning, but also be able to have access to more resources to better me as an educator in the classroom as well!
