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 Students

The students at our charter school are amazing. Our students come to school prepared and ready to have a great time in the classroom. My classroom is all about supporting one another and building skills. They always come into the classroom eager and ready to take on any task we provide for them. The work we do in our classroom is improving our skills, following directions, and finding new ideas to help each other grow. Throughout this pandemic, our students have had to adjust to distance learning or in person learning. For some it has been a struggle to adjust to the new "norm,” but they always find a way to look at the bright side.

My Project

The items I chose in my cart, like wooden letters, bulletin board materials, and wall posters, will help me decorate our spacious classroom. My job as an educator is not only to educate our little bright minds, but to also make them feel welcomed into our classroom. Decorating and creating safe spots encourages our students to come to our class and be ready to take on the day. When a classroom is decorated and filled with love, the students will feel welcomed and safe. These materials will create a positive learning environment for all students. These items will be beneficial for all students.
