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 on this list will not only help me maintain an organized and structured classroom but also help me provide my students with more engaging activities they can participate in to achieve higher interest in learning. One important lesson I learned through my years teaching 1st grade is that these students are fast adaptive learners, but they also have strong emotions they need help regulating. Incorporating simple things like organization and structure in the classroom will not only help students focus on their learning but allow them to do so with calm and clear minds. All these materials are materials that have been used in the past and replenishment is much needed to support my student's needs. These materials will also allow me to provide an accessible classroom for all my students regardless of their needs.

I am grateful for those taking the time to read this and being a part of not only my journey as an educator but my student's educational journey.
