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

We are having an end of year celebration to celebrate student achievements. May will be here soon and I can't wait. We will have a fun end of year event to celebrate student achievements. I will give students certificates that I already have in class to highlight the wonderful achievements they made this year. We will have cake in our celebration. I hope a local bakery will donate the cake, so that students eat a sweet treat at this celebration. This project has compostable paper plates for the cake and a pack of forks, spoons and knives.

Being able to give my students a sweet treat will be wonderful!

When we have our celebration, we will take pictures. It will be exciting to create our own photography station using an IPAD that I already have so students get a picture. Student photographers will take individual pictures of my student. The student photographers will use the portable printers in this project to print the pictures. This project also has Canon - ZINK Glossy Photo Paper for the printer. The back of this photo paper is sticky, so students will be able to use their picture in arts and crafts they make at home or in class. We are super excited about this project. Thank you for supporting my students celebrating their accomplishments with a sweet treat and a fun photo.
