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

These materials will help each student in my classroom visualize positive and negative numbers. These materials will also help set up the classroom with many colors. Each student will have access to use water colors for project time as well as special projects for the classroom.

Every year as a teacher we research new ways to keep the classroom clean and display the children's work.

I have added puddy because it becomes difficult to display their work. This will also help hand chart paper around the classroom.

These materials are to help each child's learning.
