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

The past couple of years have been hard on all of us, but the students lost out the most. I would love to start this year with fun, new, and exciting items!

We will use these items to bring joy back to learning.

Virtual learning was very different, but we made it work. Last year was also different, but we made it work again! This year, we will not just make it work, but make it better! Our goal is to get our students to look forward to learning as much as they look forward to screen time!

We will use the Play Doh & stampers to practice spelling words! This brings a more hands on approach for the students. We will also use the water color paint to 'ghost write', where we write with a white crayon and paint over to see our work! We also use markers for this activity. I love the look on my students faces the first time we do this- its magic!

The masks will be used to keep us safe. My students don't typically enjoy keeping a mask on, so these fun colors will make it more fun for them!
