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

For years I have used the same method of passing back student work, but it has never been the most convenient, and the organizer that I have hanging in my room often falls off the wall. I want to try something new. Using the milk crates and the tabs, I will label each folder with my students' assigned numbers, so all their work is in the same spot once it has been graded. Then, they can take their work home by just collecting everything out of their folder. This will also help with collecting data for students on IEPs or 504 plans as well, as it will all be in the same spot.

My students also value the ability to work with just our string lights on, however, it is too dark in the winter with the amount of lights I have.

I would like a few more strands so I can make my room more welcoming and friendly to students and their working needs.
