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

My students will be starting a Unit on Puppetry. As part of the Unit, I would like them to create their own puppets and puppet shows. These socks, felt, and other supplies will help them create puppets for their show.

I am confident that this will spark their creativity and help them bring their ideas to life.

Many of these students have artistic ideas and creating a puppet show, will allow them to perform without putting the students who are shy on the spot.

Thank you in advance for your assistance with this project
