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

This project contains sets of engaging bright neon colored organization materials so that each ELA class has a set color of materials to make being on task and staying organized easy and fun!

This will allow all my 7th and 8th grade students in my 4 ELA classes, my Enrichment Book Club and Tutoring group color specific classroom learning organization materials for more effective routines, organization and in turn more time on student learning tasks!

These materials will be EXTREMELY helpful so that when students who enter class for ELA (5 classes back to back throughout the day) can QUICKLY & EASILY identify and locate book boxes with all needed class materials, the learning objectives, lesson needs and resources, HW, announcements, and sticky notes because each class will have all the materials in one color for their class.

This will make transitions and classroom learning MUCH more effective!
