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 includes items that will help organize our students' classroom needs on an everyday basis. The batteries are used to run several motivational signs hanging in our room. The duct tape is used to color code the different interactive notebooks we use for different subjects. The heavy duty clips will replace some broken ones we currently have. These are used to organize the students' backpacks.

The storage shelves and pegboard will help organize our craft materials.

The rolling utility carts will be used for different purposes. One will be used to hold lunchboxes and water bottles. The other will be used during math centers to keep all our necessary manipulatives in one place.

All these resources will greatly benefit the success of our students!
