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

I enjoy to provide students with different opportunities to learn. Notebooks will allow them to keep journals as we use the Code.org curriculum for the first time. Cameras will allow them to keep a "study guide" in the form of pictures in a photo album that they can reference when we are not in the room with our anchor charts. The rolling cart will allow the class to keep their supplies in one central area for ease of use. I also like to keep pencils and pens handy so that students are never without the chance to get the information they need.
