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

My fifth grade class thoroughly enjoys collaborating and gathering in groups to complete assignments and, ultimately, LEARN! When working in small groups, it is important that my students are able to fully collaborate with the materials that they need. An easel will encourage collaboration, allow for student re-teaching, and it will be a great resource to have in the classroom to reference materials. This easel can display all of our anchor charts for reading and writing, English and Spanish vocabulary for science, and different student strategies for math. The multi-purpose use of this item is a learning environment’s dream and a classroom essential.
