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 love that my students are eager and ready to learn once they step into the classroom. They are all special in their own way, which adds character to our classroom. These materials will make a difference in our learning space by allowing our students to take full advantage of their learning space. We need glitter-plastic pencil boxes, a calendar and pocket chart, and sensory toys.

The learning resource calendar is a great way for students to become acclimated with the days of the week, Months in the year, seasons/weather, and even holidays.

This will be implemented in our morning meetings to introduce students to these concepts.
