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

Many of my students do not have the necessary means by which to provide their own supplies for class and with your support, you would be able to make this project a success. It is crucial that each student has equal access to any and all educational materials in order for them to thrive.

Our goal is to have first hand experience, generate cultural appreciation for a holiday outside of their own culture, as it reinforces their current learning with realia and meeting our world language standards.

Every student will receive an item(s) and have equitable supplies to everything on this list.

My students are extremely high achieving, they are fully engaged, and they are always participating. They truly have a wonderful sense of awareness, they appreciate the class and learning a second language, and the stories that I hear of how they are applying what they are learning in the outside world or with their families truly makes my heart happy.
