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 is the time of year when I like to restock the supplies in my room and help provide students with some motivation as we near the end of the year.

These supplies will help restock our classroom and also provide some motivation by adding new cut-outs to our Super Improver Wall!

The students enjoy seeing new things to earn on our Super Improver Wall. The cut-outs will be used as an incentive for students. They also enjoy creating things related to different areas in our curriculum. It is nice to be able to give them new materials and provide cardstock for art projects that we will be doing. I like to watch and learn about each student. By providing them with different materials each student has the chance to express themselves in their own way.
