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 happy, positive, and full of energy! Their enthusiasm for learning and willingness to try new things inspire me every day.

The markers, erasers, and dry erase markers will be essential tools for my students' learning experiences.

These items will enable them to take notes effectively, express their creativity, and visualize their thoughts. The dry erase markers will allow students to take interactive notes during class and make learning more engaging and collaborative. Students will be able to model their thinking during math.

My goals for this project is to enhance student engagement and improve their organization skills.
