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

This project will help support and 4th and 5th graders in their PLC room . The stools will be used by the 4-5 ELA MCL and the 4-5 Master Teacher for Math. The other materials are all Dolphin themed as our school mascot is the Dolphin and our theme is Diving Into Excellence for this year. Those items will be used by the students being served in the 4-5 grade levels.

We have a high population of ML students at our school and that is a challenge for us.

These items will help them when they are in small group instruction for both ELA and Math in this PLC room.

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
