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 classroom is all about inclusion and ensuing all students have what they need.

Some of the things on my list are tools that would help my students help regulate their emotions which will help them access the curriculum and enjoy their day at school.

Other items like the headphones with the microphone would be super helpful for my students for their accommodations. Other basic necessities such as glue and markers are super helpful as well use them in small groups all day long. Sweet treats are an extra that my students earn and they always look forward to.
