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

My students are AMAZING little humans who are always eager to learn.

Color coding not only adds a delightful touch to the classroom , but I've also found some truly effective classroom management strategies over the years.

They all revolve around using color coding centers to help me create smooth, efficient routines (including rotations during small groups) with my students.

These specific items will help keep our classroom color coded as well as organized so that it can help facilitate with our daily routines and small group transitions throughout the day.
