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

These specific materials will allow my students to access their education in various ways. My students love to get up and move around the classroom and are learning to be responsible in acquiring the materials they need to be successful. My goal is to help my students become independent and achieve all of their own personal goals. Each of my students are incredibly important and kind and they deserve to have all of the support they can as they continue to grow their social emotional skills and learn more about the world around them. The Clorox wipes will help to keep our space clean. We plan to reorganize our materials in the cart. We also plan to use the STEM materials during reading and in math! These will all contribute to an exciting and engaging classroom!
