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

The goal is to provide a learning environment that satisfies students' visual, physical, and auditory needs. The chairs and flower pillows will be seating options for students to work with partners, work in small groups, and a place to enjoy silent reading and i-Ready lessons. The emotions chart will be a daily check-in station for students to regulate emotions, while stuffed animals will be reading pets to encourage independent AR reading. Also, another goal is to provide organization of supplies with a unique pencil dispenser so students always have the supplies they need for writing in journals and a sturdy shelving unit will return feedback through graded assignments and provide extra practice sheets. Finally, a calm work environment is needed to model for students how to accomplish successful study skills with the use of a sound machine and calm lighting.

Students desire a learning environment that is group-oriented, comfortable, and offers options.

Our classroom serves 94 fifth-graders at a variety of academic and social/emotional levels. They are a group of kids who enjoy time with one another, bond over common interests, and learn well with their peers.
