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

Being organized boosts productivity and creativity. Organization saves time and reduces stress. We need organization! In Kindergarten, nearly every minute of the day is accounted for with students, and there is very little time for finding supplies or keeping supplies organized. We need some shelves that will allow us to easily see our materials while keeping them all organized. We will be using the big shelf to hold all our center materials and the smaller shelf for organizing all our small group materials so that I can quickly change between groups and levels, without hunting for the items I need.

Organization is important for healthy, happy classrooms!
