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
As a 1st Grade Bilingual Teacher, my students are special to me because they come from different countries to make a better life for themselves.
I need ELA and Math center materials for my classroom to provide my students with engaging, hands-on learning opportunities that reinforce key concepts and skills in a small-group or independent setting.
These materials support differentiated instruction, allowing me to meet the diverse learning needs and levels of my students while promoting academic growth in both literacy and numeracy. Well-structured centers encourage student autonomy, collaboration, and critical thinking, and they help maximize instructional time by keeping students meaningfully engaged while I work with targeted groups. High-quality, standards-aligned resources will enhance my ability to deliver effective, interactive instruction that supports long-term student success.
I need markers, storage bins, a wireless keyboard, printer ink, laminating pouches, and magnetic letters for my ELA and Math centers to create an organized, interactive, and efficient learning environment. Markers are essential for students to write, draw, and engage with activities, while storage bins help keep materials tidy and accessible, making it easier for students to find what they need and stay focused. A wireless keyboard supports digital learning and allows students to practice typing skills or complete interactive lessons. Printer ink is necessary to produce high-quality worksheets, games, and resources regularly used in centers. Laminating pouches protect important materials from wear and tear, ensuring they can be reused multiple times, which saves money and time. Magnetic letters are a versatile tool for hands-on spelling, phonics, and word-building activities in ELA, as well as for counting and patterning in Math, making learning more tactile and engaging for students.
