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 materials that I am requesting will be used in science and math classes for years to come. I have found that it is easier for students to follow along when the work is projected on the board. The projector will be used to help engage students in class. Having a lot of students in the class makes it harder for students to see the board. With the projector, I will be able to meet the needs of those students. The projector can be projected to the back of the room so that students can be able to see what we are working on. The writing pad will be used when students are taking notes. This will help the entire class learn together by following along as I write. The rulers, protractors and pencils are basic materials that students need in math classes. By having these items, students and their parents don't have to worry about purchasing these items. The brooms, tissues, and sanitizer is to help keep a safe and clean environment. Overall, these items will benefit my current students and my future students to come. These Items will make it easier for students to be more independent with their learning. It will also help the class flow smoother with less confusion.
