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 are extremely creative and artistic. Many of them are visual learners, so I would love for them to have the opportunity to be able to express their creative sides in my English class through project-based learning. Project-based learning, allows the students freedom of choice to express their comprehension and ideas through a more creative project approach.

Art supplies, such as markers, colored pencils, poster board and brochure paper will allow my students to let their creativity flow throughout each unit.

These supplies will help students express their comprehension of reading novels in so many creative ways. My students would appreciate these supplies so much!
