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 items I chose will help support both myself and my special needs students maintain their materials so that they can focus within the classroom.

Often children with special needs have difficulty with organizational skills.

By providing them with a preorganized place for their materials such as a binder, cellphone holder, magnetic bin etc. I can then set a routine for them to place and organize their materials so that they are set up for success from the first day of school.

An organized classroom allows for a focused student.
