Celebrating 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 try to instill a love a reading in every student who comes through my door! These new books will give my new class something to get lost in. My classroom library is a place that my students really enjoy. Every student book that is placed in my library is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to read. These books were chosen by my out going class, they chose books they would enjoy reading.
Along with getting lost in books, I like to teach my class to express their creativity.
That’s where the art supplies come in. They do this not just with the paints and oil pastels, but also with the building materials. While they are having fun creating, they are also working on their spatial awareness and problem solving skills just to name a few. It also helps to reduce stress!
Some of the additional items are teaching supplies for teaching the everyday subjects.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
