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 love how each of my students are ready to learn and grow in their own ways. Their desire & determination to learn and being compassionate little humans makes my heart so happy.

The specific items I have on my list are whiteboards, magnetic sentence strips, and wipeable boards for math and reading.

With each of those items, it will help my students benefit and expand their content knowledge. These items will help bridge their learning and build their confidence each and every time they use it. With obtaining those items, it will help me better gauge my skills and help get my students where they need to be. Hands-on learning and modeling is truly beneficial for young growing minds. And I can only hope to be able to provide those viable tools and solutions to my students.
