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 class is made up of 27 dual-language students who are eager to learn, try their best, and have fun all at the same time! One of my goals as a teacher is to push for a lifelong love of learning so that my students can dream big and work hard. Access to TPT materials will enrich my Spanish instruction, by providing students with engagement and motivation through differentiated materials across different content areas.

A printer and its supplies are expensive but extremely essential in providing colorful inclusive, scaffolded, and enriching learning instruction.

Having one in my classroom will save time in having to go elsewhere in the building to print, and focusing much more on providing students with work that challenges them to their fullest potential. It will also help me to create visual aids (which are heavily needed this year), anchor charts to refer back to also, and assignments for my students. Please help me fund this very important project!
