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

These things will help my students in my ELA classroom. The flexible seating can help student get comfortable and help them focus during lessons and independent reading. The headphones are a need because we don't have any. The noise cancelling headphones can help students focus when the room gets loud. Hopefully these items can help produce a better environment for my students. They deserve the world! I am hoping that these items will excite my students to want to read more and focus more in the classroom with me! Thank YOU!
