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

I want to start planning my classroom set up for the 2024-2024 school year! My goal is to creat a classroom that inspires calm, that is cozy, and inviting, a place that feel safe, in which they will be able to focus to make their learning experience unique.

I want each bullring oars to be special, non distracting, that provides my students with visuals for each class that will help them through the day.

I truly want to put great work and effort in my classroom, as I myself like for it to be a second home.

Ms. Visbal Parkwood Elementary School Grades PreK-2

Celebrate Black teachers and kids! This project supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of students are Black.
