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

This project is to support the organization of materials within the classroom environment. In preschool, the classroom environment is crucial. A well-organized space can support student's ability to be an active part of the classroom, including set up and clean up. These young students are just beginning their school career, and it is so important for them to feel like a vital piece of their classroom community, and keeping the space organized is just a start.

Back to the basics!

The goal for this specific project is to get a more organized space for materials to be placed in a student friendly learning space. Some items will also be used to organize a "lending library" for teachers to borrow literacy supports for their classrooms.
