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

These items will help my student be more successful. Students in our classroom need to be able to utilize their laptops daily and to do this they need to be charged. Students forget to charge their computer overnight for the next day of school, so having all these extension cords in a big lecture hall will allow student to plug in while they work.

This will provide enough outlets for 2 classes of students in an entire lecture hall to have the ability to be successful.

The other items are things my student use daily. Kleenex is needed for student to be able to use without having to leave the classroom and interrupt their learning time. When my student check out to use the bathroom they are required to take note of the date and time so a desk clock will help make that process faster and less interruptions during instruction time. Expo markers will be used by teacher to write daily objectives and lessons on the board, and the air freshener will make my classroom a more inviting space.
