FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Barrios's classroom raised $204

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 have a wonderful group of students who will be entering first grade.

These materials will help me spruce up my classroom and also help me create a more positive learning environment.

The bulletin board materials, math cards, and posters will help make my classroom more engaging and inviting to students.

These materials will help me create a fun decorative writing wall to display student writing and the posters will also help make my math and reading walls more decorative.

The reward box will help me be able to offer students a reward for their efforts on reading assignments, participation, and homework completion.
