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 goal is to make my classroom environment welcoming , comfortable, engaging, and complete with all the essential materials for my students to learn and grow as readers.

It is so important to supply students with the essential materials , like decodable books so they can navigate through as they practice all the skills they were taught to become independent readers.

It is also important to make the classroom environment welcoming and comfortable for learning to take place. This will be done by creating a space for the students to navigate to with comfort and ease. The carpet spaces and comfortable reading chairs will provide that for the students.

What I love about my students is that they are so eager to learn. The love of learning is what pushes me to want to provide them with more knowledge and more resources for them to shine.
