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

At the start of the new school year, it is always time to restock and replenish our basic classroom supplies and add what we wished we had the year before. I want the classroom to give off a feeling of being in a safe place where learning will happen. Every child would love to enter a classroom that caters to their academic need.

Being supplied with paper and ink will help me update the walls of our learning environment in a stylish way that the students would enjoy reflecting on.

Having an organized environment that is appealing to the eye, helps with how a child takes in information and how they respond to my teaching. Being able to use notepads and sticky notes, I can leave little notes for my students to continue motivating them.
