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

The materials that I am requesting are basic supplies that will either help me prepare for lessons with students, or be directly used by the students such as the boards and markers. We use these all the time when independently practicing math facts and strategies and also when we are doing math fluency and the students can hold them up for a quick check in. We also need somewhere to store these materials.

Proper implementation of curriculum and intervention cannot happen without these supplies.

The ability to use the markers to create anchor charts, and the laminating pouches to create center activities is imperative. Our struggling multilingual students are always given laminated elkonin boxes to build words with a partner or independently.

As a bilingual resource teacher that works with students in grades K-5 in small groups, I have a room that is not fully equipped with a closet to store all of the necessary materials, therefore the storage closet would come in very useful. It is also helpful that it is on wheels considering my room is moved every year, sometimes, during the school year. It is important that everything I need for the students is easily accessible and organized.
