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 am a first-year special education teacher, and I am just trying to set up my classroom with things my students might like. I would ensure everything is used to help my students learn and have fun. The things on my list would also help me create visuals for them to help with their learning process.

I also hope to give my students a hands-on approach to learning since many of their learning styles are hands-on.

I also want them to feel my classroom can be their safe place. I want them to be comfort.

Ms. Sanchez
Grades 3-5
