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

While my district provides an outline of units and standards my students have to meet by the end of the year; they no longer provide textbooks or workbooks. While it has become a positive development, going digital has added additional stress on teachers. Not only do we have to develop unit and lesson plans, we now have to spend hours looking for the right resources to use in our classrooms. Hours that most teachers would prefer to spend with their families. In order to meet the demands needed to provide resources for my English Learners, IEP students, on level and advance learners who are all in mixed in every class; I started to turn to Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT). I use this great resource to add to lessons or use as is. TPT has made my teacher life less stressful. However, the cost of resources is adding up. I have know spent hundreds of dollars. Donating will help offset the cost of resources from TPT, reduce time searching for resources or creating a lesson that has already been created on TPT. Thank you for donating.
