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

As a dual language teacher, I need to create the majority of my materials. Therefore, I like to laminate all my resources so I can use them over and over. Besides, when my students create something special, I like to laminate it for the parents to keep them and create memories that they can share with their children as they grow.

With these laminating pouches, I will be able to allow my students and parents to create everlasting memories.

Please allow us to keep our creations for a long time.
