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

What I love most about my students is their desire and excitement into wanting to learn and create. My students love creating projects and they love learning about money. The materials I requested will help develop their potential, after they create and see their work.

My goal for this project is to give my students materials that will excite and inspire them.

They love drawing and creating their masterpieces. The reason my students are so special is because many of them come from different countries where they’re learning for the first time with materials, they’ve never had before. When I see the excitement in their eyes, it brings to light as to why I love being a teacher.
