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 will be my first year back in the classroom after a six-year stint as an instructional coach. I have learned in the past six years that your classroom environment can make a big impact on student focus and learning.

I would love to be able to welcome my new class of students into a space that is visually stimulating and makes them happy to walk through the door each day!

I want my students to be inspired to be creative in my classroom and set goals for themselves and then strive to reach them. I intend on creating this environment with the bulletin board resources and display items included in this project! i am also asking for card stock to print essential name tags and other items as well as some tote caddies for student supplies.
