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 Students
I work in a school that is a high poverty. Many of the students receive free or reduced price meals. My goal, as their teacher, is to provide them with a positive learning environment. One big way of doing this is by having a classroom where they feel welcomed as they would at home. They spend most of their day with me and I try to make it the best part of their day.
This will allow the students to be organized when getting their materials each day during center/station time.
They will know what is needed each day with the organization drawers, while working independently and collaboratively. This will allow my student to concentrate on the work at hand without having to search the classroom for materials.
My Project
Students will be able to use the storage carts to organize their in class materials. Each group of 4-5 students will have a cart. Their materials for their station will be located in the cart. This allows for easy transitions and fewer lost materials. I want my students to concentrate on learning, not if they can find their materials.
These carts are the first step to learning how to keep up with materials and organize them in a way that makes learning and creating more efficient.
Learning organization skills will allow the children to concerntrate more on their learning of reading (literacy), math, writing, and science concepts and skills.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
