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

It's a pleasure welcoming my newcomers everyday as they walk into school. Their smile and greeting makes me very happy in knowing they are becoming very comfortable in their new environment. These resources and/or materials will give them the motivation and eagerness to come to school everyday and knowing that there are people out there that care for them very much. Furthermore, snacks and goodies would be the push for their learning. Finally, seeing their faces as they receive snacks, books and other supplies would be beneficial to their well being as well.
