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

Students thrive in a clean, organized environment where systems are in place. The items I have chosen for my basics needs list will help students to achieve their goals by offering them this space to grow in and be creative. Students are in charge of keeping a clean area, and the vacuum and hand sanitizer will offer this. We use out white boards for a lot of interactive activities but we run out markers a lot so this will be helpful in all academic areas.

My students are special because they work really hard, and they want to be succesfull.

They are also unique because they are super kind and good people and I want to offer them the best learning environment I can make for them.
