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

Many of my students are ESL. I believe that by getting them to write more, it helps bring out more of their English knowledge, and in turn, will better prepare them for academic language down the line.

The supplies requested, such as paper and crayons, will help accomplish this, and my intention with the pencils and paper is to generate more student involvement in class through an interactive notebook.

The microfiber cloths are for use with dry-erase boards, are a good way to engage shyer students and allow them to collaborate with the group/class.
