Tower of History

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

These items will help create a fun and competitive learning environment in my classroom. It will help my students who struggle reviewing through conventional means. The Giant Jenga and white boards will help us expand our review sessions to better prepare for our state exams. The classroom environment I create is based on student interaction with their classmates and with me. These materials will help create a better bond for us all. They will help us get out of the "normal" routine of things and learn history through different strategies.
