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 Students

My classroom is affected by the coronavirus pandemic because my students are not able to come to school to learn. They are missing everything about our classroom. The materials they used to use during instruction are gone and they only have a computer or tablet to do assignments.

My Project

These materials would help my students stay motivated while experiencing this pandemic. They would be able to receive prizes for participating on Google Classroom. I love having celebrations in our classroom to show my appreciation for their academic progress. I would deliver cheer to my students with these materials. My students are extremely appreciative with everything I give them. I would create bags with colored pencils, crayons, and activities. Therefore, students could create pictures and drawings according to lessons assigned. This would provide students with an opportunity to participate in creative lessons while being at home.

I would use the ink to type out letters to my students and stamps to mail them out.

Also, I would deliver baggies filled with supplies such as beach balls, and art supplies for doing an awesome job working virtually. My students would be filled with emotion when reading through my letters and opening their supplies.
