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

This year I was introduced by my district to a new instructional strategy called "thinking classrooms" in which students are paired up randomly and show their thinking on a vertical dry erase surface so that it is visible to all partnerships and the teacher.

My students love the activity, but we are lacking some of the key components, like book sets and vertical dry erase surfaces for all partners to use!

With materials like whiteboard paper, book pouches, erasers, and resource folders, this instructional strategy will have an enormous impact on my students' learning in all subject areas. Thank you for considering a donation to my "thinking classroom"!
