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

All students need to have a strong foundation of organizational skills in order to be successful in their daily routine. I want to incorporate the good habit of becoming organized. The simple habit of being organized with their daily materials will make students learning easier. Organization will build their confidence and motivate student learning.

The routine of organization encourages students to be successful scholars.

The use of the seat pockets will allow my students to have easy access to their learning materials. This will make my students more responsible and respectful of their materials. Giving my students pencil boxes will help that ever dreaded "I don't have a pencil teacher!" With your help we can create fantastic habits for their future.
