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

The items we have included in this project will help our classroom run more smoothly and allow our students to learn more easily! It may seem like a random assortment of items, but everything we have requested is needed in order to help organize our classroom learning centers.

The tables and shelf will allow us to create a separate science center for our students to explore and the charging station will help alleviate the tangled mess of cords we have charging our iPads in our technology center.

The poster board, dry erase markers and erasers will allow our students to practice their handwriting skills and create art projects throughout the year.
