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

One way I try to keep my students organized is by using colored paper for assignments, notes, and projects. Every week, a specific color is assigned to an assignment. Assigning a specific color allows my students and me to track what we do in the classroom in an orderly fashion.

A set of colored paper is used for notes, which is then tied into the color that will be used for assignments.

This allows students to know which notes and assignments are connected.

Colored paper is also a need for projects as students love to use their creativity and love to use color in their presentations.

Lastly, white paper is always needed as some students' learning styles require plain paper. Exemplary ones can be laminated to post on the wall and kept for years to come.
