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 Students

Being bilingual is a super power! We are a bilingual Spanish-English 4th/5th grade bridge class in the Bronx. My students are a bright, funny, and hands on. We love the community that we have built. In our classroom, we have varying styles of learning, some are visual, others are more hands on. I am very lucky to call them my students. These kids come to school every day ready to learn about their new home country, and each one is full of incredible potential.

My Project

Color paper is so exciting! These materials will be used in our classroom to print tools, graphic organizers, activities, homework pages, and assessments. Students get so excited when they see color paper, it also breaks the monotony of the long day.

Making the students' work stand out, color paper makes learning fun and unique.

It elevates the excitement in the room. It also helps us color code materials. It also adds to the productivity of the classroom and allows for differentiation without the students noticing, which is important because children don't want other classmates to know that their work is different.
