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 students are a constant source of inspiration! Their curiosity is boundless, and their enthusiasm for learning is truly contagious. They approach every challenge with a spirit of collaboration and a willingness to explore new ideas. I see so much potential in each and every one of them.

These vertical whiteboards will provide them with large, open spaces to brainstorm together, work through problems as a team, and visually map out their thinking.

The chalkboard wall calendar will be instrumental in helping them develop crucial organizational skills, track assignments, and understand the flow of our learning journey. Finally, the bulletin board paper and borders will allow us to create an engaging and dynamic classroom environment where their accomplishments and learning are celebrated, making our space truly feel like their space.
