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

I teach in a great school in the midwest. I teach students from all different backgrounds and all different income levels. Many of my students struggle in school. I would like the chance to supplement our new curriculum in ways that engage them.

I would love to purchase activities from Teachers Pay Teachers that allow me to give my kids a more in-depth look into what life was like during the different eras we cover.

I know there are activities about chivalry and knights during medieval times that I think would catch their interest. Activities that are more interactive are always such a great addition.

I love that Teachers Pay Teachers keeps me from having to recreate the wheel each time we get to a new topic.
