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

The pandemic has given us many challenges, as having to social distance. As a result, students lack social interaction and skills. For these reasons, I would like to enhance their social emotional learning by providing them with materials that support their learning and help them develop much needed abilities.

The play-doh, bookmarks, prizes, keychains, stickers, etc.

will be used to create goody bags that will help me make my students feel welcome and loved. They will contribute to their social emotional learning by showing them they are valued and appreciated. Help me make a difference in a child's life.
