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

Having a mailbox hub is important in kindergarten to make sure classwork and other important papers are organized and ready to go home.

Classroom mailboxes are a great way to also encourage students to share acts of kindness with each other.

Students will have open access to share cards or kind notes with each other while also maintaining organization and learning to be responsible for their take home folder. Students will love taking their mailbox tray to their desk and having it all ready to go without having to search for classwork or papers in bins that can get overwhelmingly full with their classroom supplies.
