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 material that I have requested are being use to help with organization, SEL, and differentiated ways to show material. These items are needed because they will help students be able to complete their work using different methods of writing and give students a chance to engage their work differently.

The books bins will allow students to be able to access their STEM materials by having it all organized.

I have many STEM materials that will be used this school year. The object of having the different organization bins is to allow students to be able to get to their material with ease so that they are able to do their work more efficiently.

Lastly, I added items that will allows students to be able to feel emotionally safe. The long dragon will be used as a reading buddy in the class. They will be able to use the plush as a way to practice their fluency. Then, the stickers will be used to help the students personalize their material. I believe in letting students decorate their own items as a way for them to take control of their learning. It will make them feel more at home!
