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 very special, sweet, and respectful. From the moment they walk into the classroom, I can see that they enjoy coming to school and are eager to learn.

Donations to our project will make a great impact in our classroom as they will allow all my students to have books they can read.

I will use the books during reading groups and will have my students take turns reading. I will be listening to them as they read and will give them support as needed. Then, my students will be taking a test so that I can see if they are understanding what they are reading. My students will be rewarded with bracelets and charms for their bracelets as they try their best.
