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

Students will engage in small group activities with opportunities to utilize the requested task cards. Students can gain a deeper understanding while working closely with teacher and a few students. Learning can be engaging and fun. Students can earn incentives, such as the fidgets, which they enjoy.

My goal is to keep students engaged and motivated while learning to grow a love for Reading.

My students come into school ready to learn something new everyday. The help would be greatly appreciated as it would give my students the opportunity to gain new learning experiences.
