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

This is a project preparing for the coming school year 2024-2025. This school year both my students and I tried our best to make learning material organized effectively. Without any installed storage room in the table, we tried storage box, book trays, teacher holding books, seat sacks ect. However none of them worked well. Students needs to walk around the class whenever there is need to get books or worksheets. Teachers needed to collect all the materials and return them again every time, which made teaching and learning very unproductive.

This project, with 8 storage carts and 20 pencil boxes would make huge difference.

Students could put all their textbooks and folders in to the drawers and put the cart next to their seat. Pencil boxes could store their pencils, color pencils, markers, sessions and glues, which would keep the material better than seat sack(small stuffs always fell off from the seat sack). They are also more tolerance than seat sacks. Most seat sacks were broken in a year and a few could reused for next school year. The cart would perfectly avoid this from happening. We can use the cart for years!

The students would appreciate it if your kindly help give them a more effective and organized classroom and a more learning welcoming environment.

Thank you very much!
