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 start of a school year sets the tone for a successful school year. Feelings books and activities that allow students to express themselves support this great start. We will use the cart to organize the different activities and books for students. When students come to my room, they will be able to work in small groups or individually learn.

Mental health is an important focus area for our students to learn in the classroom.

Students facing social or emotional barriers struggle in the academic subjects. My project will provide students in grades kindergarten through fourth grade, who may have just experienced in person learning for the first time, be successful.
