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 first graders. They love making drawings that help to express themselves through art. As a teacher, I observe everybody's needs and likes and it's my job to incorporate that into my daily teaching. As my students express themselves through “art” we go through a lot of pencils, crayons, and more. As I teach the lesson, my students use a whiteboard to write their answer and share it with the whole classroom, and helps to check for understanding. That is the reason I request mini erasers and marks since we go through a lot.

Science is another subject that my students love.

It requires glue sticks and scissors. In most of the experiments we do in our classroom, we investigate and collect data. These supplies are necessary because students cut out the result of the investigation and glued it to their science notebooks to keep them on record.

Thank you for your support.
