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

Please help my Special Education students learn about all different cultures in this beautiful world like "Chinese New Year".

This is one of the most beautiful events of all time!

Most of my students do not have the liberty or economic luck to go to China or let alone leave the country.

Reason being their immigration status and low income. With these tools I am asking for will really benefit my Special Education Classroom in reenacting a special event like this. My students will be very grateful and they will really appreciate it.
