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 the best in the world. We spend so much time discussing and note taking that sometimes we don't have time to express ourselves in an artistic way.

These supplies will allow students to transfer what they have learned into a more visual manner.

They can express and display their learnings in a more expressive way with these markers and pencils. With the year coming to an end within the next 9 weeks, creating projects for them will help us end the year on a fantastic note. I would like to thank whoever helps in advance.
