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

The materials and supplies requested in this project will help our class and will be used daily throughout the school year. My goal for this coming school year is to set up a routine in which students come in to the classroom and begin writing in their journals. This will help them practice their daily English and Spanish writing. I'd like to have journal prompts ready to go and displayed on the board so that they can get their creative minds going as soon as they walk in.

Classroom basics are essential in the quest to having a successful school year.

These materials and supplies will be used during small group instruction, daily math and reading whole group instruction and in the every day running of our classroom.
