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

These materials will help grow our newborn classroom into a happy home for our learners. Students spend the majority of their day and week in the classroom. These essentials will motivate them to learn and keep them engaged throughout the school year. Most students can excel in their education, but are not stimulated by their environment or able to relate sufficiently to the content.

These materials will help me, and my class work together to bring our studies to life and push our students to shine at their fullest potential.

Ms. Fuentes Comstock Elementary School Grades 3-5

Equity Focus
