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

Every morning, we begin our day with our rules and procedures to keep being a very good class at school. They know the meaning of classroom management and how effective it is for everyone. Teachers can work efficiently, and students are ready to learn every single lesson!

My students are the most diverse group of kids.

We are a Title One school, and some of the families do not speak English at home. Due to all the adversity, my students are eager to come to school to learn every single lesson. They are becoming great students because of the effort they are making while attending all their classes.

Setting a learning atmosphere is a must in a 5th-grade classroom for any teacher, and factors like time and age have made some of my Seat Sacks in class either ripped or useless. Seat Sacks are relevant to storing supplies, teach the concept of organization to students, have easy access to materials, and are a simple solution for a desirable, clean classroom.

Organization begins with offering comfort to all students in class. I can visualize my students pulling notebooks out or placing magazines inside pouches when using these new storage sacks in class. Help me reach this goal!
