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

I am a bilingual teacher for a Tier 1 school. Every year I have a group of students who are enthusiastic and eager to learn. This year is no exception.

My group of students have demonstrated they are ready to conquer the world.

Day by day they exceed their learning goals. My students enjoy reading at school, during school dismissal, and at home. As their teacher, I am overjoyed by their ambition.

The requested materials will grant my students access to further pursue their learning goals, such as providing them with a variety of fiction and nonfiction literary texts to further extend their vocabulary in both English and Spanish. Also, with the use of the cricut my students will be able to create art projects to go along with the thematic writing activities. They will be able to display their work in the classroom, at school, and to their parents.
