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

I work with an excellent group of students who are 4-5 years old. We have a very small classroom and need more space for developmental and learning centers.

Having the chair pockets will free space around our classroom to have more room to play and learn.

Each student will have a chair pocket behind their chair where they will place their writing folder, homework folder, and writing supplies. In addition to freeing up space, having the chair pockets will give every student easy access to what they need and make our transitions go much smoother.
