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

Our new curriculum has provided us with so many great resources and manipulatives to use with our students. Allowing students to have more hands on activities is great for learning. However, without storage bins it is hard to keep everything organized and easily accessible for the students.

By having clear plastic storage bins students can easily grab them off the shelf and utilize the materials with minimal redirection.

These storage containers are reusable and will help keep things stored orderly and conveniently. It will also allow the class to use fewer plastic baggies to store some of our smaller items. Thank you so much in advance for your donations.
