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 requesting two TPT Gift Cards for my students. I currently teach kindergarten in a dual- language classroom.

I am planning to use the Teachers Pay Teachers gift cards to purchase teacher-created STEM lessons that are aligned to our Bilingual: kindergarten skills and standards.

These gift cards will be of tremendous help because I will be able to print lessons, from amazing teachers.

That means that this will save me precious time and I would have the right digital resources to teach my students STEM lessons in both English and Spanish.

I won't have to look for books and other resources outside the classroom.

Thank Heaven for “Teachers Pay Teachers"; I won't have to feel like I have to REINVENT the Wheel!

Having these resources will also enable me to print Spanish materials as well as google slides that will keep my students engaged and motivated.

In addition to the TPT gift cards I have also requested card stock paper and craft tools that we will use for our STEM projects and activities.

We hope you see the importance of our vision and you are able to help us out.
