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 love lab in our chemistry class. We do a lot of data crunching, analysis, and peer work. There is so much to celebrate and keep as a reminder of what we have learned.

Help me equip my students with individual folders to stay organized and on track.

A dedicated folder is incredibly helpful when you come to class and know that the work you are starting or completing in addition to what you accomplished is in a safe place.

We have room in my classroom to keep all of our folders in a bin dedicated to students. Please help me provide my students with an individual folder to keep their classwork organized for each period they have me.

Each class is unique. A unique color folder will help students stay organized. A folder is a simple tool that will keep their work organized and quickly accessible!
