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

Hey everyone! My school has a very strict no cellphone policy which I have found to be so positive because it allows our students to form real bonds with each other. During open library at lunch, students get an opportunity to play games, talk, read, and make friends in a way that is authentic and off of devices. I love watching my students play the games that we have.

This project is to get more games, puzzles and activities, such as button making, into their hands so they can form friendships off of their cellphones.

This year the favorite game has been Simon and Break the Ice, which I haven't played since I was young. It's fun watching them interact in this way.
