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 project and focus this year is being able to motivate students to give their best in their writing, and research projects by have colorful and cheerful areas to showcase their hard work. Our school walls are older, and we don't really get nice paper or borders to put up to display our students' work. They get so excited seeing their work up on the walls as well as that of their classmates, this also gives them an opportunity to learn from each other as they read other students' works. I would love for them to have somewhere nice to showcase, their projects. In addition, the Better Than Paper material plus the cork boards will make changing their projects easier without having to make holes in their works by pulling them off, or having to be stapling into walls that don't really take the staple too well.

In addition, we are focusing heavily on writing and staying organized, the writing process folders will assist students in their writing process each 6 weeks, as we have a goal of one big writing piece a grading period, and the highlighters will help them in their editing and revisions.

Lastly, students really appreciated the additional help in staying clean and smelling fresh with deodorant this last year, and I would like to continue to pass on those hygiene practices this year. Students area also very much about keeping their work spaces clean, by utilizing their wipes. We want to have a learning space that is clean and comfortable for our students.
