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 incredibly brave, hopeful, and determined. Many of them are recent immigrants who have left behind their homes, families, and everything familiar to start over in a new country. They are learning a new language, adapting to a new school system, and trying to feel like they belong. Despite the challenges, they come to class with curiosity, kindness, and a desire to grow. Their resilience inspires me every day.

For many of my students, this will be their first time experiencing Halloween.

The candy requested in this project may seem small, but it represents something powerful—a moment of belonging, joy, and cultural inclusion. When students feel seen and included, their confidence grows, and their willingness to participate and engage in class increases. Creating a positive and welcoming classroom culture directly impacts their learning, motivation, and social-emotional well-being.

My goal with this project is to give my students a simple but meaningful celebration that helps them feel part of their new community. Sharing candy with their classmates gives them a chance to connect, smile, and build memories in a safe environment. These small acts of joy help reduce anxiety, encourage friendships, and create a trusting space where learning can flourish. My students deserve to feel valued, and this project helps make that possible.
