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 are curious, creative, and full of potential. They are eager to learn and grow, constantly surprising me with their insights and resilience. They come from diverse backgrounds, each bringing unique perspectives to our classroom. Despite challenges they may face, they approach learning with enthusiasm and determination, making every day a joy to teach.

The multicolor highlighter petals will be a game-changer for my students.

These versatile tools will support them in developing essential skills like organizing information, annotating texts, and breaking down complex tasks. The different colors will help them visualize connections, categorize ideas, and focus on key details in their reading and writing. Whether they are analyzing a story, solving a math problem, or brainstorming for a project, these highlighter petals will make learning more engaging and effective.

My goal is to empower my students to become active and confident learners. By using these resources, I hope to foster critical thinking, improve comprehension, and help them take ownership of their learning. This project will also promote creativity and collaboration as students use these tools to share their ideas and work together on assignments.

What makes my students truly special is their perseverance and drive to succeed. They embrace challenges and strive to do their best every day. They are not just learners—they are future leaders, innovators, and changemakers. With your support, I can provide them with the tools they need to thrive and make their dreams a reality.
