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 Students

My students come from mainly low income households. I am a kindergarten dual language teacher at a dual language school and my main goal as an educator is to make sure my students have every opportunity to grow and learn and to develop a love of learning.

My students are at the foundational level of learning.

It is my goal as a teacher to make sure I provide my students with as many opportunities to learn and grow as readers, writers, mathematicians and explorers. Thank you in advance for your support!

My Project

In a Dual Language classroom it is very important to have everything color-coded. Blue for Spanish and Red for English. This book bins and storage box will help my students to organize their journals and books in different subject areas every day.

Please help my students to organize their learning.

We will use the blue book bins to put them on the tables for books that my students will read during phonics and reading in Spanish. They will use the red bins to organize their science journals in English and their homework in the storage boxes. The blue bins will be used for math and writing journals. This organization will help my students understand and know more easily where to find different materials in the classroom. By donating to my project you will help my students to organize their learning and my classroom to run a smooth routine.
