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

My 21 student classroom is a diverse, eccentric, and fun group. I have a very flexible teaching style where my students are allowed to find places to work in a way that helps them do their best. COVID-19 has impacted my students in a major way. My students need new ways to learn and skills to stay organized.

Coming in, I knew these students needed more than any other class I have had in the past.

My students need a way to keep them focused on their learning in a way that helps them to learn best. I have selected items that will enhance my students' abilities to be flexible in their seating choice, and also allow them to stay organized daily with their work and supplies.
