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 post-COVID classroom is filled with smiling, eager, and emotional third grade students. My students will be utilizing the magnatiles to work on collaborative and team building skills. The easels will be used for small group instruction, which is an extremely important part of our day. They will be so excited to see wobble chairs accessible for them when they need to get some movement out of their body in order to focus. I am so excited and grateful for the opportunities for these items to be fulfilled. Thank you!
