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

My students have been working very hard so far this year and I'm proud of them. We have come a long way with their handwriting and independent assignments but we're not quite finished yet. We're running low on copy paper and would like to continue improving our writing skills. The copy paper will help my students have their typed essays and independent assignments printed out.

Having this paper will allow my students to continue getting effective but useful independent writing assignments.

My students love expressing themselves through writing. I love reading what they write and discussing how to improve their writing with each assignment. I have seen tremendous growth in my student's writing so far. I would like to keep the momentum going.
