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 am trying to purchase books that my students are interested in. I have had a few students ask me for books in Spanish. I want to get different types of Spanish books to be available for my students. Having books available in Spanish helps them recognize I care about their culture and language. I also want to have snacks readily available for them. Students are exhausted throughout the day and need a snack to help motivate them to complete their work.

A laminator will help students organize their lives.

I can laminate their schedules and important papers.
