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

The students in my class are very eager to go on new adventures. The children in my classroom are very energetic and enthusiastic about long-term projects. Many enjoy sharing small moments, and others enjoy listening, creating a picture in their heads to bring it to life on paper by drawing. I am dazzled with their appreciation for our read aloud's and GoNoodle activities. Outdoor recess has been something they missed, almost as much as seeing their friends once again. I am cheering for a memorable second grade with Spanish dual memories.

My Project

These materials will allow students to celebrate and create long-term memories. The camera would allow us to take pictures to keep as memoirs while engaging in different activities. These activities include celebrations like the superhero of the month, student of the month, and school events. Organizers will help us create a cohesive environment to foster independence, and flexible sitting provides students with choices based on their comfort preferences while learning. The text selected aligns with the character traits of the month. Personalized T-shirts would be designed by students (with teacher support). The goal is to celebrate individuality, as well as to keep a token of fun second-grade memories. Students will be eager to celebrate good choices, uniqueness in a safe and supportive environment.
