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 year I want to make a space for my scholars to enjoy learning and have different ways of engaging in their learning. Using the fidget box I can give tools to my students who need them to help them stay on track and focus. Using flexible seating is another great way for my students to stay on track and keep focus. Lastly it is extremely important to be safe and using the googles I can assure my students are.

These tools will encourage and help my scholars in many ways and help them in their learning experiences within my classroom.
