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

I absolutely adore my students for their unique qualities and the incredible potential they possess. Each one of them brings a special spark to the classroom, whether it's their curiosity, creativity, resilience, or kindness.

What makes them truly special is their eagerness to learn and their ability to support and uplift one another as a vibrant learning community.

The introduction of cubbies into our classroom will make a remarkable difference in their learning journey. These cubbies will not only serve as a practical storage solution but also as a symbol of empowerment and ownership.

By having a designated space for their belongings, students will be able to organize their materials effectively, ensuring easy access to resources and minimizing distractions.
