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

These materials will create a very engaging, hands-on learning environment for my students. Whiteboard dots will encourage collaboration, while glue sticks support interactive notebook activities. Pencils and grips will help all students write comfortably, especially those with fine motor challenges. Carpet dots provide structure for group activities, and dot markers make learning more interactive and fun. My goal is to foster independence, engagement, and confidence for my students. My students are very creative, curious, and thrive with hands-on learning. These tools will help them stay engaged and excited to grow!
