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

COVID 19 had a devastating effect on all our students specially our English Learners (ELs). State testing data shows that our ELs are up to three years behind from reaching their grade level.

In order to support the our ELs I would like to create an ideal collaborative workspace in our classroom.

This table can comfortably fit a group of 4 students so we can effectively hold small group instruction. This area will allow our students to work on targeting those skills they need to master in order to close this huge grade level gap.
