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 students are English Language learners from kindergarten to fifth grade. Most of them know very little or no English at all and are working on foundational reading skills. Learning how to read has its challenges but learning how to read in a different language is another level.

When it comes to my classroom, students have really enjoyed having choices when it comes to sitting or standing.

They are more comfortable and in return, more engaged.

Including large bean bags as a seat choice will continue to make students feel safe and cozy while learning.
