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 use of the items I listed will be used daily in my classroom. The whiteboards are now a part of checking for understanding as well as showing what they know. The anchor charts are a must have so that students can use as a reference when they stumble upon some misconceptions and need some guidance. The manipulatives will help our students have the concrete understanding before moving to the abstract knowledge which will help in their learning. My students are eager to show growth in the new school year and I am excited to be part of that process
