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

To give my students the best opportunity to learn and grow, they must first be organized! If they can keep their notes organized, they will have quick and easy access to the material they have learned.

My goal for this project is for each of my students to have a binder dedicated to their Earth and Space Science class.

For many of my students, this is their second time taking the class, and Regents exam. Having their notes organized will give them the best chance to succeed on their exam this June.

As a teacher, my philosophy is as follows: Good things culminate from being organized. Without quick and easy access to their learning materials, students can fall behind. Help me to ensure that we can keep all of our students on track.
