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

First grade is amazing! Our students are excited, inquisitive, and curious at school. They come from a variety of backgrounds and experiences and we love to see them learn.

Our students thrive when they are in a comfortable and engaging learning environment.

The addition of the classroom rugs will provide a place for students to comfortably sit when we are learning whole group lessons. The rug is the perfect spot to go to for a read aloud, literacy instruction, or a new math concept lesson.

Our language arts curriculum is very interactive, and throughout the lessons students use a variety of essential items like sticky notes, white board makers, and mini easel pads. As students use all of these items, this allows us to quickly see if they are understanding and learning the concepts we are teaching. The Teachers Pay Teachers gift card allows us to get resources to help our students learn and participate in activities in math and literacy. The paper cutter allows us to quickly prep items for these interactive lessons.

Some other items that make our rooms run smoothly are headphones and class rewards. Headphones allow each student to focus on their own task on their computer. Using headphones, students are able to complete reading and math activities at their own pace without distractions. We love to reward our students' hard work. Small incentives such as sunglasses, socks, and birthday crowns can make a big difference on our students' attitudes.

Your support will help us provide a comfortable, engaging, and rewarding learning environment for our 1st graders. Thank you for helping our students succeed!
