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 third through fifth graders who are full of energy. The students have adapted to the challenges thrown at them this past year and are not only surviving but thriving in this very different environment. My students come from very diverse backgrounds. They love reading diverse books, participating in maker space activities and STEM challenges, and are very curious. I have a large population of English language learners. They are eager to learn and enjoy every minute of it. They are all amazing kids!

The time of year ahead is full of fun learning activities, among the favorites are our Thanksgiving Day Parade and Christmas Ornament making!

We are requesting an additional inflatable turkey to add smiles to our annual parade as well as leaf ornaments that our students will make and line the windows with. We are also in need of kindness flags for our marchers to hold and headbands they can wear.

Later on in December, students look forward to using markers to make ornaments that can be gifted to spread kindness. Lastly, we are requesting Takis that can be used as a reward when kids are caught being kind!
