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

I love my students for their curiosity, resilience, and eagerness to learn. Each resource we’re requesting will significantly enhance their educational experience: Colored ink will provide my students with more engaging visuals to understand activities that we use to learn in our classroom. It will be helpful with creating color centers to use during small group activities. The colored ink will also enable me to create various visual aids, charts, activities, and assignments for my students. This will allow me to have the materials needed to create engaging learning resources and so much more for my students. It will make a difference in my students' learning. They will have more fun because color is engaging and visually appealing. Planning and preparing activities will be more efficient with the use of these visuals.

Writing Journals will provide a space for organized writing, drawing and develop creative writing skills.

My students want to be able to write creatively and enhance their writing with illustrations. Having writing journals will allow them to have this experience. Having pencils will ensure they can actively participate in writing and problem-solving activities, facilitating hands-on learning and creative expression.

Having access to articles in Kid's Time Magazine will not only engage my students in reading fluently, but it will help open up their minds to bigger ideas to brainstorm for their creative writing.

Our goal for this project is to provide every student with the tools they need to succeed academically and foster a love for learning. My students are special because of their enthusiasm and dedication to their studies, and with these resources, they will be better prepared to reach their full potential.
