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 Students

Our school focuses on supporting children from all angles in order to watch them grow into the amazing adults they have the potential to be. Every student has capabilities, talents and strengths; all it takes is for them to learn to believe in themselves.

They are excited to interact, learn, and grow as a community of incredible individuals!

My students are excited about being back in the classroom, and this year as we develop their belief in their own abilities, they will borrow my belief in them to do the right thing, to learn, and to grow.

My Project

The materials in this project will, first and foremost, help provide students with a much needed structure as we adjust back to classroom life.

They will help students learn to be responsible for themselves, their materials, and their learning.

Students will practice important skills of organization as they learn to take care of their materials and be responsible for their work. They will allow students an opportunity to practice self-regulation and provide flexibility in seating and choice for students in where they feel they learn best. It is crucial we teach kids how to listen to themselves and take care of themselves in order to set them up for future success.
