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 school is over 50 years old and most items are or have fallen apart. It makes it very difficult to run an efficient upper grade classroom without the necessary supplies and tools.

The pink table carts will allow students to stay organized and for there to be no wasted time in the day.

In addition, the book racks for the white board will allow me to display books for the month that are important.

I have found that my students need folders to stay organized. I have asked many times and parents do not supply them for a variety of reasons that are predominately related to lack of finances.
