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 incredible at working together and teaching each other, and I want to empower that collaborative spirit. The resources in this project will give them the tools they need to shine as leaders. A vibrant new rug will define our whole-group learning space, making it a comfortable and welcoming place for us to gather. The microphone will give every student a voice, helping them feel confident when sharing ideas with the class. With the chart paper, magnets, and pointers, my students can visually organize their thoughts and take turns leading lessons, becoming the confident and creative teachers I know they can be!
