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 4th grade ICT class is a group of passionate and curious individuals. They are developing their reading skills and with that comes reading on a daily basis and exposure to different books. They will be using the zipper bags to store their independent reading books for the week. They are working diligently to complete portfolio work, therefore they need a special and organized place to place their portfolio binders, which is where the shelves come in handy.

During small group instruction, my students are eager to effectively master their skills in literacy and math.

Since we have limited spacing in our classroom having stools at hand that students can easily move around in the classroom would make the transitions easier and productive. Digital clocks serve as scaffolds for time keeping for those students still learning how to tell time.
