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 classroom is filled with energy, kindness, and multiculturalism. My students come from different countries and learn in two languages, English and Spanish. They are always eager to share about their cultures and family traditions. We embrace diversity and celebrate our backgrounds. This project would help me immerse my third-graders in the world of bilingual learning with a beautiful collection of English-Spanish books. These stories are a wonderful way to promote language development and cultural understanding.

The books would also make a difference in students' social-emotional learning as they can see themselves and their families represented in the stories we read.
