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

We have a high need of SEL supports that are provided by my growing calm down corner. Items purchased will help provide students with items to identify their feelings and tools to help self regulate.

My First Graders need engaging materials for reading centers for our new curriculum as well as during reading intervention and math intervention time.

This will allow me to pull a small group for targeted instruction while the rest of the class are engaged with these materials. These important blocks in our day are what helps to fill learning gaps caused by COVID-19.

Lastly, This project will provide my students with their own headphones to limit the need of head phone sanitation as well as flexible seating from lap desks to spread out within our classroom.
