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

Every year, I try my best to excite the kids at school by spreading holiday cheer! No matter what they celebrate or even if they do not celebrate the holidays, kindness is something that can be spread either way! I love giving my students gifts (socks, snacks, classroom décor, stockings) and also having them create family ornaments to gift to their family. This teaches them that giving is even more valuable then receiving!

This project will spread cheer at school and at their homes while teaching them the value of giving and spreading kindness!

I am excited to spread my holiday energy to my students to ensure they have a happy December!
