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 want to help my students take charge of their learning by giving them the tools they need to stay organized and independent. With a rolling file cart, hanging folders, colorful file folders, and organizer boxes, I’ll set up a system where students can easily find missed or past assignments without needing to ask me. This will give them the chance to build responsibility and self-sufficiency while staying on top of their work. It’s all about making it easier for them to help themselves and grow those key skills for success!
