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 we are continuing to focus on creating small groups to address the individual needs of every single student, specifically those whose standardized assessment scores fall at the 10th percentile! But we could use a calendar to keep track of our learning and data cycles so the students and teachers can see where we're at, a smart TV to be able to project our lessons, videos and interventions, and a monitor so that students and teachers can work on a Chromebook and see while seated together at our small group tables!
