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

We are moving to a new classroom in our school! Our new classroom is going to be bigger and better! It is going to take a lot of work to move all of our supplies but we are ready!

Our new classroom has room for us to create centers!

We look forward to allowing our students to learn in different environments while staying in the comfort of our classroom!

These few items will help create a quiet, calming center in our classroom. Students will be able to go to this area when they are frustrated, want to read independently, or just need a few minutes to take a break.
