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

Lap desks are something that I would really like to provide my students with this year for learning both inside and outside the classroom. Lap desks would provide students with a nice way to use their materials away from their tables at the carpet, in the hall, and even outdoors! Differentiated learning environments are so important and I think lap desks would be a great way to help support students while giving them a change of location to work. These would be great for whole group learning and we would use them daily!
