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

Our room is a place of innovation and exploration. Every student is required to give and do their best. I encourage creativity and set high expectations for projects. In addition, my goal is to create a classroom environment that is peaceful and inviting for students and supply them with whatever they might need.

I want students to have the ability to use our classroom materials to do their assignments and create projects they are proud to share.

I requested notebooks, folders, pencils and highlighters for when students need writing materials. Our classes can use printer ink to print colorful images for interactive classroom activities. I requested items that can be used for students to complete projects such as glue sticks and permanent markers. In addition, I asked for some items to organize our notebooks and paperwork.

Middle school can be a challenging time for students. Fortunately, my classroom is a safe space where I provide the students with the things they need to succeed.
