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 have a sweet group of 2nd grade students who love to come to school to learn! The majority of my students are multilingual learners who are eager to learn, socialize, and wanting to do their best.

I am wanting to organize my classroom to help my students get the supplies they need to start their day off smoothly.

Having some new shelves and drawers will help them know where to find supplies and books. Also, the lanyards will help organize their lunch cards and will be easy to pass out and be ready for lunch.
