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 games will help to bring joy and the classroom materials will help us get ready for a new year and to put our best foot forward as we jump into 2025.

Help my enrich my students’ learning experience and organize our classroom so that we can optimize our learning time!
