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

I work with a large culturally and linguistically diverse group of amazing learners, which includes K-3rd grade levels. Our classroom environment is warm, welcoming, and student-friendly. My students are an amazing group of individuals with various abilities. Our classroom is full of students who are ready to learn and who will persist. My students are motivated to learn, want to be at school, and want to succeed.

The binding combs will used to bind our social stories and the Velcro will be used for incentive charts.

The colorful bins will be used to store our monthly theme books to keep them organize. The sensory tools (fidgets, popsockets, theraputty, tubes, and balls) will be used during calming and relaxing breaks.
