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

Simple tools like folders, name plates, cut-outs, and plastic sleeves play a powerful role in creating a well-organized, engaging, and welcoming classroom. Folders help students take ownership of their work by keeping materials neat and accessible, while name plates foster a sense of belonging and provide helpful reference points throughout the day. Bright, cheerful cut-outs add color and personality to our learning space and can be used for everything from celebrating student achievements to enhancing classroom displays. Plastic sleeves make everyday activities more interactive and reusable, allowing students to practice skills with dry-erase markers while helping us conserve resources. These materials support a structured, student-centered environment where learning is both meaningful and fun.
