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

My students and I desperately need a classroom easel. An easel is a teaching tool that helps instruction become more interactive and engaging. This easel is a must-have tool.

This easel will be used by both the students and me daily.

This includes morning meetings, math block, literacy block, and almost all discussions. We can do a variety of things on this easel like create graphs, read poems, write together, and much more. This easel will increase interactive participation between my students and I, while making my job a little easier! In addition, this easel has wheels so that it can be moved to use anywhere in the classroom whether for small group or whole group instruction! By supporting this project, you are helping students engage in their learning. Thank you!
