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

My students are an eager group of second-graders who love math, reading, and writing. Given our love for learning, we have supplies that need better homes. The organizational bins will help us accomplish this.

As we start a new semester, we need to restock essential supplies including erasers, homework folders, and dry-erase pockets.

We will use the magnetic ten frames, poly pockets, and subitizing cards to step up our math block. The giant timer will also facilitate our centers and independent work time so that we can maximize our learning!
