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 children stools allow for students to meet with myself and intervention teachers in a comfortable way at the back tables. When students are comfortable, they are more focused. I also want to give my students markers so I can hang up their work. In addition, it allows my students to be as artistic as they want with a variety of coloring tools. I want to keep my classroom clean and keep my students healthy as much a possible. Lastly, the anchor paper will allow my students to show their ideas during activities. It also allows for anchor charts to he created to aid student learning.
