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 laminator would be used to create interactive materials for my students to engage them during lessons. It would be useful to create reusable worksheets for hands-on learning and to adapt instructional materials to meet the needs of the diverse learners in my classes. The Velcro would be placed on the sheets to reinforce what they have learnt.

The snacks would be used for students to enhance their energy when their energy levels dip and they lose focus during class.

When it comes to managing behavior, the snacks would be a good positive reinforcement to motivate students to do their best.

Ms. Fernandes will only receive her materials if this project is fully funded by July 22.
