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 students in my classroom work hard and give their best every day. They deserve a comfortable and organized classroom to help give them the best environment for learning. My goal is for our classroom to be functional and organized, utilizing items like a chart stand for increased wall space as well as trays for students to keep their desks neat.

Other items my students would benefit from include mice for computers.

Students spend extensive time on computers to meet their requirements for assessments and other projects so having a mouse of their own would make it much easier for all students to access features on the computer they may have difficulty with.

My student's hard work deserves to be rewarded with comfort in their classroom as well. I am hoping to bring more flexible seating to our space as a motivator for students. Thank you for helping to give my students the best learning!
