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

I would like to have extra pencils and dry erase markers in the classroom as we are running out. Pencils will be used throughout the whole day. Dry erase markers will be used during whole group and small group during literacy and math instruction.

There are many benefits to integrating personal whiteboards regularly into lessons: increased student engagement, allow for quick assessment, easy to erase mistakes, and don't waste paper (no copies required.

We use pencils and dry erase markers on a daily basis in my classroom.

We are using whiteboards in the classroom consistently throughout almost every lesson.

They are such an integral part of my classroom.

We also need a reliable sharpener, as ours just broke down.
