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

Students that are prepared, organized and distraction free perform better. Unfortunately not all students have access to what they need. Please help me start them off right.

Students that are prepared can conquer tasks with more confidence and their success soars.

Small things like binders, whiteboard markers and glue guns help them to accomplish tasks easier by being organized. It allows them to design and redesign, make models and test their concepts.

The biggest distraction is their cell phone. By creating a charging station students are more likely to be engaged and less distracted. Students collaborate more effectively and problem solve as a whole group building on each others experiences.

How we start the year sets the tone for the year. Help make it a strong one. Thank you for your help.
