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

Access to hand sanitizer and Lysol wipes ensures a clean environment, reducing the spread of germs and minimizing absences due to illness. This keeps students healthy and engaged in their learning. Tissues allow students to address personal needs without leaving the classroom, keeping them comfortable and focused on lessons.

Expo markers and erasers support interactive, collaborative learning.

When tools are readily available, students can actively participate in lessons, like writing on whiteboards during math or group activities, fostering engagement and immediate feedback.

My students bring a variety of backgrounds, learning styles, and experiences to the classroom. This diversity enriches discussions and fosters peer learning. Many students show resilience and adaptability, particularly in overcoming challenges related to variable attention, neurodiversity, or organizational barriers.Each student has a unique way of approaching problems, asking questions, and expressing creativity, making the learning environment dynamic and exciting.
