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 will be teaching kindergarten. I am eager to give my students an engaging and exciting learning experience. In Kindergarten, an inviting classroom makes learning more exciting. I will be using borders, classroom letters, and bulletin board paper to make our classroom welcoming to be in. During group work, students will need stools to help them focus on lessons. These stools will help brighten the classroom too!

My goal is to give my students a classroom that they are proud to come to each day.

I want my students to be able to come in and feel comfortable in their new home. The printer will support their learning by providing visuals in real life colors to help their understanding of concepts. These items will help in making my new classroom ready for my students. With your support, I will be able to print in color and decorate the classroom to make my students feel welcome.
