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 seat back pockets will help my students become better organized and more successful. The whiteboards and markers will help my students work collaboratively and show their work in an engaging way. The other materials on my list will help the students in my classroom engage in their learning and help the classroom run smoothly throughout the day. My students will be more accountable for their work and daily activities with some of the organizational pieces. Using manipulatives will help learners that need to build their knowledge with hands on experiences first.
