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

Maintaining student's attention as we work in the classroom can be challenging, so I am trying different strategies to get them involved and keep them involved.

White boards and clear sheets will allow our students to practice their strategies in a fun and exciting way.

Using these white boards will help to keep our students engaged as we learn and practice. White boards can be used in math lessons as we learn to multiply and divide. They can also be used in language arts as we write our spelling words. By donating to our project, you will not only help to improve and increase student attention and focus, you will ultimately help to increase their academic achievement.
