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 provides classroom organizers, binders, erasers, dry erase markers, wet erase markers, and cordless lamps to support daily learning. These materials will help keep our classroom organized while encouraging active student participation and hands on practice. Students will use the markers for whole group lessons, small groups, and independent work. The binders will help them track progress and take ownership of their learning. The lamps will create a calm and welcoming environment for reading and focused work. Thank you for supporting classroom and helping my students succeed every day!
