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 amazing bright young individuals. Many have experienced hardship and are so positive despite their environment.

My students are energetic, funny, silly and lovable.

They love to learn though play and different activities that I am able to create for them with the different materials of the classroom. My classroom is like a second home for my students and I truly believe that by the simple sayings of "I Love You" or "I want to stay here with you".

My Project

These materials will continue to enhance the fun classroom that I strive to create. My classroom is a place that my students really enjoy-I read on the carpet to them, complete projects with them, and they work independently! Every material that is placed in my class is treated with love and care, and they are thankful for the opportunities to create and learn. All of these materials have been chosen with my students in mind.

The students love to create Art projects and just learn though play.

Every center in our class is an opportunity to learn something new in a fun way.
