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 project targets organization and teacher materials. These materials will model organization and structure within a classroom. This allows students to learn in a neat and clean environment that will bring happiness, comfort, and safety to my scholars.

A happy classroom is an organized, safe, and structured classroom.

I care deeply about the well-being of my students and want them to learn in an organized and happy environment. Their teacher is also happy when her classroom is organized!

I plan to use all materials to organize papers, lessons, and student work. This will make a positive difference in the students' learning experience in my classroom!

Ms. Rodriguez O'Keeffe School of Excellence Grades PreK-2
