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

So much of a student's school experience is through the school curriculum.

This project will be used for classroom materials, improving the back patio, and better headphones.

The bookcase will be used to organize the curriculum in the backroom. The square tiles will be used for math small groups. The felt pens will be used for grading and student drawing of their plants. The colored paper, pencils, and whiteboard markers will be used for student handouts and activities throughout the year. The doorstopper will be used for the backdoor. The headphones will support students using their Chromebooks.
