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 year, I would love to start our class environment off on the right foot. Having a clean classroom is very important and helps the kids stay focused. The Lysol wipes, mop, and sanitizer will help keep our class looking at its best.

Besides learning the basic subjects, I want my kids to be excited about our new Art center.

I have found every year that the kids love to draw and paint whenever possible. Having an art center that has all the tools like paint, paper, portable art table, and brushes will definitely add an exciting center to our classroom.

Finally, the bulletin Boarders, Letters, Stapler remover, will allow me to make our environment look fresh and inviting. The chart paper, markers and Post-its will enhance the students learning through-out the year. I am so excited to start the year fresh and inviting to all my kiddos.
