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

As an enthusiastic educator dedicated to fostering creativity and engagement in my classroom. We are in the need for a classroom easel that will greatly enhance our learning experiences. My students come in eager to explore new ideas, express themselves, and engage in collaborative learning.

With the addition of an easel, I can provide them with a valuable tool that encourages creativity and supports various learning styles.

Many of my students are visual learners. An easel can be used for demonstrations, math work, phonic lessons, as well as writing.

By using an easel for daily announcements, student-led lessons, and interactive activities, we can foster a more engaging and dynamic classroom environment and make lessons more interactive and accessible.
