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

Our classroom is full of books, different types of technology, flexible seating, and music. Students are able to switch seats and complete their work all over the classroom, wherever and however they are most successful.

My students are a great group of students who love to move, create, learn, ask questions, and occasionally make a mess in the classroom.

Whether they are listening to a read aloud or working on an interactive notebook entry, they are always putting their best feet forward. They love being active, whether it's playing games in the classroom, going out to recess, or at PE.

My Project

My students use earbuds at least once a day and not all of them are able to bring a set from home. Our current set of earbuds are three years old and need replacing. We also recently received five new Kindle Fire tablets but have run out of places to plug them in. Having a USB hub would allow us to use one outlet to charge them.

The beautiful thing about a rug is that it can bring a class together.

We had to dispose of our group rug earlier in the school year after being tread on by 100+ students over the past few years. A new rug would breathe new life into our classroom.
