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 love how curious, thoughtful, and full of potential my middle school students are. They come into class every day with big questions, strong opinions, and a desire to understand the world around them. Whether we’re exploring ancient civilizations, learning about the branches of government, diving into scientific discoveries, or examining the impact of current events, my students are eager to connect what they learn to their own lives and communities.

A Teachers Pay Teachers (TPT) gift card would be an incredible resource for our classroom.

It would allow me to access high-quality, engaging, and grade-level appropriate materials across all the subjects I teach—civics, science, history, and social studies. From interactive simulations and hands-on projects to graphic organizers and digital resources, these materials will help me differentiate instruction, reach diverse learners, and bring lessons to life in a way that sparks deeper understanding and critical thinking.

With your support, I’ll be able to give my students tools that make learning more meaningful, creative, and fun. Every resource I download will be used to support them on their journey to becoming informed, empowered, and curious citizens of the world.
