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 project includes essential tools to support learning and language development in my 4th-grade bilingual classroom in NYC. With a MAKEASY binding machine and comb spines, I’ll be able to create booklets and study guides that help students review content and strengthen language acquisition.

Binder rings will be used to create portable vocabulary flash card sets, giving students a hands-on way to practice key terms in both English and Spanish.

A bulk supply of HP printer paper will allow me to print anchor charts, reading passages, and differentiated worksheets for all learners.

To make resources last, I’ve included laminating sheets and sheet protectors, which will help me create durable, reusable materials that can support students throughout the year. 3-ring binders, folders, and pencil pouches will keep each student organized and responsible for their own learning tools.

These materials will foster independence, reinforce academic content, and make bilingual learning more accessible and engaging for all of my students.
