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

These writing materials are important to help students think critically about the various texts used in the classroom while encouraging them to organize, understand, and apply prior knowledge with new concepts.

These materials will help them to have good communication skills, both writing and speaking.

This projects will motivate learners to better express themselves, communicate idea, opinions, and persuade others. We will use these materials to assist students in the process of becoming life-long writers. I believe that some of my students, may be not all of them, will become future authors, editors, illustrators, grammarians, or grant writers, etc.
