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 energetic and love learning! And this year we have twice as many students as we are growing our Dual Language school program. In our program, students spend their day with two teachers. Half of their day they learn in Spanish, and half the day they learn in English!

Everyone needs supplies in both classrooms in order to stay organized in both spaces!

We need to help the little ones manage their materials and these bags, book boxes, and folders will be key!

This project will help support students as they manage materials in two spaces, leading to better success as they develop biliteracy and multilingual abilities!
