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 students are 8 energetic, amazing children. They all have very different academic and social needs. However, they all try very hard to learn and be star students! Therefore, I need various materials that will help them reach their uppermost potential. I am requesting materials that will increase motivation and engagement in the classroom. These materials will provide my students with resources that are essential to their individual needs and academic growth!

My goal is to provide my students with a nurturing environment that will enrich their learning experience.

It is our job to help these children feel loved, comfortable and safe. These materials will help me make their learning a fun and memorable experience, which is my ultimate goal as a teacher.

My Project

My students are amazing children. They are all functioning below grade level and are super energetic, but most importantly they are so eager to learn. These materials will make a huge difference to my students. The seats will provide flexible seating which will allow them to be comfortable while learning. The games and books will provide them with materials for hands-on learning and be of huge interest to them. This is a great factor for both academic and behavioral success in the classroom.

These materials will motivate my students who love hands-on activities to remain engaged and interested in learning.

It will allow my students to be active learners and have fun doing it. These resources will provide my students with the necessary tools to be confident and enthusiastic in their learning journey! My students will have the opportunity to recognize their learning styles and use techniques better suited for them.
