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

I am very excited to be teaching Pre k 3 for the first time this year. I am very passionate about books, I believe that reading to students early on will prepare them for success. I am hoping to fill up my library with many books, so that my students have a variety of books to read from. Hopefully they will enjoy reading as much as I do.

The items I chose will help enhance the students learning.

Providing creative resources.

Allowing them to have fun as they learn.

Create a safe and comfortable environment.
