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

Hello, my name is Massiell and I'm the Spanish Teacher at J.O. Wilson E.S. I'd like to begin by expressing that I love my students. Everything I do in my classroom and around the school is with them in mind. Last year, I hosted an amazing Hispanic Heritage Month Event, the parents and students loved it! This year's event I want it to be the best one yet, that's why I need your help!

The items chosen will help the event to run smoothly.

Some of the items chosen are also things that my students love, and I plan on using them throughout the academic year for academic and behavioral incentives. I always seek to provide my students with authentic Spanish experiences and this event will continue to expose them to other cultures. To continue to learn, appreciate, and respect cultural diversity. Gracias! :D
