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

Our last project was a success in getting our classroom better organized. We need a tall storage cabinet, to keep the literacy curriculum organized and additional book basket cubes for the classroom library bookcases. These items will get items out of random storage places and kept in one area. This will help the students when they are asked to get materials or when choosing their independent reading books for their personal book boxes. Our goal to to make the classroom student-friendly and accessible to everyone, even if there is a substitute.
