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 year I want to teach my students more then just academics, I want to teach them how to be responsible with their things.

In my classroom I give out tickets as my classroom management and I would like to implement a classroom store this year.

With that I am going to have different items that they can "purchase" with their tickets. This will help teach them how to save up their tickets to get things that they want. I will have little fidgets, pens and notebooks as well as free choices that they can choose from.

I also want my students to be able to have a reading buddy that they can all read to during class. Students love reading with stuffed animals and it really helps build their confidence in reading.

I am looking forward to teaching a new group of Busy Bees this year!
