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

I'm expecting nervous yet excited bright-eyed and bushy-tailed students eager to begin learning. I would like to prepare my students for learning by providing them with the essential classroom supplies and tools they will need.

For example, folders are essential for students to carry their homework to and from school and to keep their work organized in class.

Pencils, pens, markers, sticky notes, and notebooks will allow students to write creative essays and keep them organized. Also, these supplies will help students produce collaborative posters, artwork, and crafts. Students will use the Sticky Notes to take notes and annotate as they read informational text and literature. Further, students will use the pencil pouches to organize all their materials and keep them readily accessible to use throughout the day as they engage in a variety of learning opportunities and tasks.

With these basic classroom supplies, my students will start the year with the essential tools for learning in an organized classroom. I am eager to return to school and see all my students smiling as they prepare their desks with their new school supplies.
