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 Students

My bilingual students are eager to learn every day and excited to work in collaborative groups. They find joy in the little things and appreciate living in a country where children are valued and encouraged.

Not only are they excited to learn from me, their teacher, but they eagerly help one other reach new heights when working with their collaborative groups.

Each day, they do their best to match my high expectations for them. They inspire me with their drive and dedication at such a young age.

My Project

Students will be using the items to create a pet rock their personal companion that is safe for them to interact with and not have to worry about transfering a virus. In addtion students will have magnetic white boards to practice spelling, writing, and math facts. In addtion the 3 ring pouches will have students to have their own personal supplies that they are safe during this time when we are worried about a virus. The final items are lanyards for students to keep their personal logins and student ID's safe.
