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

Using whiteboards is almost a daily activity in my classroom, especially during math. We use dry eraser markers all the time, during whole instruction, during small groups, and during individual work as well. Students often choose whiteboards as a center activity. I need to replace these markers almost every other month. Using them daily will wear them out easily.

Having students that are not able to speak English, is forcing me to use a lot of visuals, charts, drawings, and labels all over the classroom.

I am using chart paper this year almost 70% more than last school year. Also having 22 students in one classroom makes it very difficult to be organized, we need several sets of crayons, pencils, and markers for each pot so they all can finish their work with few distractions.
