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

My Kindergarten classroom is full of learning and discovering. My students use each day as a new opportunity to learn and grow together!

“Teachers who love teaching teach children who love learning." My students come from diverse backgrounds and family dynamics.

We are a Title I school located in Wilmington, California. I strive each day to provide a loving and nurturing environment for all of my students. They come to school with many challenges, yet we persevere! I want them to know that they can achieve all of their dreams! We were all dreamers once and some of us just needed that extra cheerleader to encourage us to chase our dreams - that is where I come in!

My Project

This project is filled with supplies to start the school year off on the right foot for my upcoming students. Having the classroom set up from day one with learning aids, pencils, and glue will make my new students comfortable and realize that they are in their new home.

Bright blue bulletin board paper will be used to cover the walls and make our classroom an inviting and captivating space to learn.

All of the materials will be used to create a engaging space where students can learning and thrive.
