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 students come from a wide variety of backgrounds. Many students benefit from the free or reduced-price lunch program. Some of my students do not come to school with all the necessary supplies. Although that is true, my students are hard workers, and they do not let anything get in the way of their leaning. They try their best in all that they do. Our class motto is "Work hard. Be kind." They always stick to the motto as best they can.

My Project

My third graders love to work on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) projects throughout the school year. In order to incorporate art, we are in need of art materials. The addition of these items into our classroom will allow students to have their own materials (as shared materials are a thing of the past now). Students will be able to use the scissors, glue and card stock during the art portion of our STEAM projects. I will be able to use the Teachers Pay Teachers gift certificate to purchase project plans to incorporate into our STEAM lessons and projects.
