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 appreciate a healthy snack to help energize their morning or afternoon. They appreciate the support of kind people and realize where their snacks are coming from. Headphones and magnetic dry erase markers allow me to get them on their individualized learning paths when on the computer and to check their comprehension of content as they work on their whiteboards.

Flexible seating options are a great option for students who need a little more movement during their day.

It strengthens their core and increases their stamina for staying focused.

My goals for this project is to have the basic tools they need to optimize their learning environment.
