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 materials in this project will provide the students in my Polish Pre-K classroom with organizational pouches and tote bags for the daily materials and class supplies.

With organization comes empowerment.

Think of the last time you organized something and how you felt afterward, you were unstoppable. When we are organized we feel good about ourselves and put forth our best selves.

The large pouches in this project will help my students bring their English and Polish school work back and forth to class. Students will keep their crayons in the small pouches and we will store the crayon pouches in a basket in our classroom.

The colorful tote bags in this project will store the students' sleep supplies. Students will be able to access their sleep supplies during rest time and put away their sleep supplies independently with these tote bags. The book baggies will allow students to take English and Polish books home. The students will pick 2 or 3 books from our class library and bring them home to read with their families.

The organizational materials in this project will help my Polish Pre-K class get organized for a successful school year.
