FULLY FUNDED! Mr. Carabajal's classroom raised $225

This project is fully funded

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

We are always creating, adapting and implementing strategies to create a positive learning environment for all our students. These materials will be able to assist staff and students in engaging in a fun learning classroom.

The clipboard will be used to collect data throughout the day and will be utilized throughout the school year with many students.

Our program is a data driven program, where the data drives our instruction for our students. The pens and legal pads will be used with staff (aides) to collect much needed data in their small groups.
