Help me give my students the materials needed to be successful next school year.

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

Preparing my small groups for the upcoming school year will profoundly impact my students' learning journey. By creating a well-equipped and engaging learning environment filled with the classroom basics, I aim to enhance student outcomes, foster a love for learning, and support achieving their individualized education plan-specific goals. My project focuses on providing essential classroom basic resources and materials that will directly contribute to each student's success and growth.

Through this project, I aspire to cultivate a space where students feel empowered, motivated, and excited to learn with a variety of multisensory activities, classroom basics like pencils, markers, erasers, dry erase boards and additional academic support strategies and other basic classroom materials.

By offering a variety of educational tools, I will cater to my students' diverse learning needs and creating a classroom setting that inspires curiosity, exploration and excitement for learning.

My students are truly special individuals with unique talents, interests, and aspirations. They deserve a learning environment that nurtures their potential and encourages them to dream big.
