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

The items listed will help my students keep their learning environment organized and engaging. My students will have their preferred items in their book bags to access them after they have completed their work. Their binders will be used for their visual schedule. My students thrive when they have a visual schedule to know what comes next. These items will be a great opportunity for my students to have all the building blocks needed to help master their goals and to have a great school year. Please help my students get these necessary items.
