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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

I plan to use headphones in my classroom for independent listening, interactive games, Edpuzzles and more. Headphones are necessary for my Emergent Bilingual students that are new to the country and learning English.

Good vibrations will fill the classroom!

Pencils are a necessity for lab investigations. The students write lab summaries to explain what they learned. Glue sticks will be used for their interactive notebooks.

I am forever grateful for your generosity. My classroom will feel like a home away from home. A home where students can ask questions, form hypothesis, state claims, collect/analyze data, and draw conclusions.

Grades 6-8
