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 students love to express themselves through written expression and take pride in their work. I want to give my students paper, notebooks, and pens to practice cursive letter formation. Beautiful, high-quality, colorful pens, enough specially lined paper, and folders for safe-keeping make this learning extra fun!

Once students have mastered the art of cursive, they may feel encouraged to write their thoughts in their journals.

Journaling is an excellent outlet for all students, especially those who struggle with mental health challenges such as anxiety or depression.
