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

Hi! As a first-year teacher, it would be exciting to bring engaging materials for second grade. Students will be encouraged to express who they are in art and writing activities. Pens, journals, markers, and crayons are all very exciting tools for students to use. Providing them with a variety of options to create fantastic artwork would enhance their learning. My goal is to create a cozy space for my students to learn in. I believe a safe and comfortable environment for children motivates them to take advantage of their materials.
