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

This school year, I want my classroom to be the best it can be for my students. One of the materials that I have added is the clear folders where the students will be using them to put their rubrics and are able to reuse the same paper multiple times. I have also added classroom refreshers so our class can smell nice for the students when they come to the classroom. This also helps the students stay focused in the classroom and have the right mindset. 

Using all the materials in this project will help my students feel motivated and welcome to be who they are.

I have also added some rewards for my students to win during the school year. This will help my students to be motivated in the class and also participate in the class. Lastly, I have added some things the students will need, which normally are easers, especially now that they are writing essays in the class.
