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

As we enter the last leg of our school year, I want to make sure my students have an enriching and educational summer break. Research shows that students often experience a learning loss, or "summer slide," during extended breaks, and I hope to combat this by providing each student with a Summer Success Bag.

These bags will be filled with engaging materials to keep the students excited about learning throughout the summer.

Inside each bag, the students will find printed math and reading games tailored to second-grade curriculum standards. They'll also find playing cards, dice, and playing pieces to help them play the games.

To further inspire exploration, each bag will have a calendar of home learning ideas. These calendars will offer daily suggestions for fun and educational activities, ensuring that my students continue to develop their math and reading skills in a fun and positive way!

Your contribution, no matter the size, will make a significant difference in the educational journey of these second graders. Together, let's ensure a summer filled with learning, exploration, and fun!
