My students need a comfortable place to learn, explore, and dream of a bright future. I am creating a space where this is possible with the fluorescent light covers and a wide array of books.

Celebrating 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.
I teach in a school where we value our students as our own children. I come to work everyday with the goal to help inspire and create life long learners.
My students are energetic fifth graders who love to explore and ask questions.
I work to create a classroom environment that is inviting and makes students feel comfortable taking risks. I have created multiple spaces for students to collaborate, and they love to be able to move around and work with others.
I love that fifth graders are ready to take on a challenge and go that extra mile. If you were to walk into my classroom you would hear laughter, see students collaborating, learning, and questioning.
My Project
Sitting under fluorescent lights for hours a day can be straining on anyone's eyes, especially when you are reading and looking at an iPad screen. With the addition of the fluorescent light covers, the classroom will automatically be more welcoming for the students. Classroom environment is so important when you are asking students to challenge themselves and dream big! I am continually working to create a space where students feel welcome and comfortable. We work hard, dream big, and have fun in our classroom everyday.
I see that students are more successful when they feel comfortable in the classroom and have choice.
Student choice in books is extremely important in order to foster a love for reading. I am constantly adding new books to my classroom library in order to excite students with new texts to read. The students faces light up when I introduce new books into our classroom library! I chose books that will help them to understand the journey to success and spark imagination in their minds.
All of the materials will help our classroom run smoothly, feel comfortable, and plan a bright future.
