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

In a classroom where children have different strengths, gifts and motivations it is important to create a safe environment where every student is given the opportunity to reach their full potential. These materials will tap on students; interest and motivations as well as individualize their needs by creating an innovative learning space. It will empower them to enhance their curiosity and creativity by learning about diversity and acceptance of others throughout the school year.

For example, having the Anti-Racism Collection literature bundle in the classroom will enhance positive interactions between students and develop acceptance and comfort in the classroom community.
