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 a new teacher, I am creating my dream classroom from scratch. I have been trying to get my hands on as many supplies as possible for my students to explore and learn from. However, I am struggling with keeping up with neatness and organization in the classroom because I don't have bins to put things away. I also have some preschool games, supplies, and even books that I do not take out of the closet because I do not have an actual place to store after the students are done playing. My students will truly appreciate having more storage in the classroom in order to have their hands on more supplies and it will also make the class less overwhelming knowing exactly where things get put away and it looking neat! The big bins will be used for bedding/cubby storage, the rolling cart will be used to organize lesson materials by day, and the other bins and caddies will be used for area supplies like markers, crayons, worksheets, and even books! We will truly appreciate all your help.
