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

Creative bulletin board walls are helping my students unwind and be able to concentrate. My kids, who struggle with learning impairments and are easily distracted by bright colors can benefit from a friendly environment—with some fake plants and creative bulletin boards—setting up motivational decorations with encouraging words never to give up, and continuing to try their best. To help kids learn their days and months, it's also beneficial to have a basic calendar that they help in training like a class job. My main objective with this initiative is to make the kids feel comfortable in the classroom. Since my students work hard to maintain their attention and focus on a task, they deserve the best.
