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

Cleanliness and organization will get the students to be able to enjoy the classroom to the best of their ability. This will also help the students learn with little distraction. I want to give my students the ability to store their supplies in the classroom. This will ensure students don’t need to carry too much back and forth from home to school. This will also help the students carry less from class to class and around the school. Learnings our main focus and organizing our space will make this happen.
