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.

Celebrate Black Teachers and Students

This project is part of the Black History Month celebration because it supports a Black teacher or a school where the majority of the students are Black.

My Project

The first day of school brings a mix of excitement, anticipation, and a touch of nervousness for both students and teachers alike! Establishing a solid foundation for my students starts right from day one when I provide them with essential materials for our daily class activities.

In our 6th-grade math and science classes, we foster regular collaboration among students.

Each student is required to have basic materials such as notebooks, folders, and pencils. During group activities, students will utilize markers and chart paper to exchange ideas and collaborate effectively.

These materials will be put to use from the first day of school and will help me to establish regular routines of collaboration between students. Thank you for donating to our classroom!
