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 I am requesting in this project will enhance the look of my classroom and create a more organized space. I am a first-year teacher trying to create a classroom that is appealing to the eyes of students. I want my students to walk into a place that is organized and fun to be in. Little by little I have been putting together my classroom with supplies that I can get my hands on. However, there is no real theme in my classroom, and it often looks messy and overwhelming. I want the organization supplies to organize the class supplies in order for the students to have easier access to them. An organized space will also allow for students to want to explore more and clean up time will also be a breeze. I am also asking for some teacher resources/supplies including an easel cart that will enhance my teaching style and allow me to explore new strategies within my lessons.
