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

Highlighters and snacks can totally make a difference for 10th graders in my ELA class.

Highlighters, magic wands for studying!

When students use highlighters to mark important information in their textbooks or notes, it helps them focus on the key concepts. It's like giving their brains a neon sign that says, "Pay attention to this!" Plus, highlighting can make reviewing for tests or writing essays a breeze because they can easily spot the most crucial information. It's a game-changer for understanding and retaining the material.

Now, let's move on to snacks. Who doesn't love a tasty treat? Snacks can provide the fuel that keeps those 10th graders going during their ELA class. When students have a hearty snack it gives them a boost of energy and helps them concentrate better. It's like giving their brains a little snack break to recharge. Plus, snacking can create a positive and enjoyable learning environment.
