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

Having a standing desk will allow me to be more mobile during lessons to keep students engaged and be able to be a resource for them. The whiteboard and things that go on the whiteboard will allow me to project things both on the smart board and whiteboard.

I want students all over the room to be able to use the resources I'm displaying for them no matter where they are.

Being able to display things with velcro and having bins for things will allow our classroom to stay organized and allow them to have clear minds instead of their minds reflecting the crowdedness in the classroom.

Ms. Ligon PS 86 Kingbridge Heights Grades 6-8

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