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

Given the set up of my classroom, there is only one whiteboard in the room, and unfortunately, the projectors is set up to project on the whiteboard, so my screen stays down most of the time, and I am not able to use the whiteboard. By getting the adhesive whiteboard, I can put a whiteboard up on another wall and have an area designated for student information. The borders and wallpaper will be used to make the new whiteboard look more pleasing and eye catching to the students.

Having snacks for students allow them to replenish their energy and focus on tasks in class.

The toolbox will be used to organize the snacks, and students will be able to get the snacks whenever they need. Many students have been asking for snacks throughout the day, and this project will help me to be able to provide snacks for students.

The plastic sheet covers, binders, and folders will be use to help students stay organized as we enter the second half of the year and get into SOL season.
