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

This TPT gift card will allow me to purchase and use materials for my awesome 5th graders. It will make it easier for my students to succeed in their learning. TPT has been an amazing resource throughout the years and will certainly engage all my students to be all the best they can be! The downloadable and printable materials from TPT will help my students in becoming proficient readers and mathematicians. Practice makes practice and this gift card can do just that. My students are visual learners and having access to printed material is a bonus that I need to provide to my scholars.
