Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I love how my students are very friendly with each other and love to welcome other students in the classroom. Toys and snacks can be particularly beneficial in the classroom for newcomer students as they help create a welcoming and comforting environment. The ball point pens and cards can serve as a familiar and engaging way for teachers to express themselves to they students, especially when the students are feeling shy or uncertain in a new environment. Snacks can provide a sense of home and comfort, helping to ease any feelings of homesickness or anxiety. The popcorn can be provided at the end of the day and middle of the day to help keep the students comfortable. Additionally, both toys and snacks can serve as icebreakers, encouraging interaction and bonding among students, which can be especially important for newcomers trying to make connections in a new place. Please help support this project.
