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

My students are eager to learn and they love to learn. Our classroom needs books that the children have access to throughout the day. Right now, there are no books for them to access which prevents them from learning to have a love for reading. We also need some more organizational tools in our classroom. The children need to learn organization and having an organized classroom will help them to develop organizational skills through modeling in the classroom. Likewise, centers will play a key role in their learning of math and reading. Hence, the manipulatives for reading and math. Additionally, we are PBIS school and we reward students for their excellent behavior. The bulk toys that I have chosen will be their treasure box items. Overall, all the items that have been added will aid in their learning. From the markers to the pencil boxes, they all play a role in their daily learning.
