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 Students

Let's get up and move around! Mobile book carts, mobile teaching easels - sounds nice, doesn't it? My students would LOVE to be able to share their favorite books with classmates around the room by simply sliding it around!

My students are 21 of the most upbeat, fun loving, and motivated 3rd grade students around!

They marvel at the sight of a brand new pencil, a pack of crayons, or especially a new book! My students are so very grateful for everything that I can provide for them and love receiving gifts from donors like you because it shows them that doing GOOD is all around the world - not just in our classroom!

My Project

With a mobile book cart, students will be able to browse through books of the week, holiday books, and more from anywhere in the classroom! Students will be able to zoom around the room and get out of their seats to share books with their classmates. The mobile teaching easel would make learning at our special spot extra special as we could move around, engage, and learn from somewhere other than our seats!

This project is so important because I am very passionate about engaging my students and making their everyday learning experience as effective as possible!

By providing them with classroom resources like a mobile book cart and teaching easel, I am ten steps closer to making their 3rd grade experience kinesthetic as we move around and work hands-on so much more loads of FUN!
