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 book baggies will allow my students to carry their books home for reading and help to stay organized, as well as bring them back to book shop for new books each week. The other materials will help with different class activities.

My goal is to make sure my students are given the opportunity to grow and learn to their full potential.

My students are amazing leaders already that is why continuing to provide them with tools that will help them achieve organization skills as well as readings skills will allow them to continue on the right path.
