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

My first grade students are eager to learn new things. Providing fantastic supplies and fun learning experiences helps to keep them engaged in their learning. They get very excited when I start handing out supplies with their names on it. Everyone has their own learning tool box with headphones, dry erase markers, sticky notes, and more.

Please help me create a learning environment that helps support student achievement.

Organizational tools and consistency throughout the classroom sets up an even playing field for all. All of my students deserve the best I can give them. Our school is a title 1 school and the majority of my students qualify for free or reduced price lunches.
