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 Students

My students are from a small, loving community, bounded by support and family. The students literally grow up together, some being in the same class together since Transitional Kinder. Everyone knows each other and they demonstrate kindness and perseverance in accomplishing their educational goals.

As third graders, they are reaching for a sense of independence as they take on more responsibility for their own learning.

They are inquisitive, creative, passionate and extremely funny little people that are molding their sense of understanding.

My Project

Having a spot for students to collect their papers is crucial in helping a classroom run smoothly. Having the mailboxes will allow students to be self-sufficient in knowing where to gather their important papers. They will also be excited to check their mailboxes and see what's inside them.

By having student mailboxes, students can be responsible in gathering newsletters and their graded work with ease.

Students will know to check their boxes and I can easily pass back papers with ease. Students can also be helpers and pass back papers into their classmates' mailboxes too! They can be helpers in the classroom and this will help reduce taking the time to pass out papers.
