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

This upcoming school year, our grade level will be departmentalized and I will be only teaching one subject. With that being said, I will have at least 44 students next year and I want to empower their learning through structure.

Our campus is a Title 1 elementary school with students from low-income families.

I would like to provide what I can to these students, and I will need your help. These organization storage bins and shelves will help students keep their items organized and the classroom clean. I've also added extra bins for myself to keep my small groups organized and keep their materials together.
