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 students range from Honors English I to Inclusion, Regular, and Honors English III. I work in a Title I school without much in the way of family or friends to help out, but my students will always come first!

There is nothing I love more than making literature and reading come to life for students who may never have been told that it is so, we need books, paper, folders and other items to make this happen.

My classroom is very low-tech and high-reward, so I thank you for your consideration and hope that this year may bring the best for you and for all of us!
