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

Have you ever walked into a dark and dreary office or classroom? It doesn't look very inviting to adults. Now imagine that you're a child and this is your "home" for the next 10 months.

These classroom decorations will help brighten an otherwise boring classroom.

If students feel that their environment is warm and inviting they will feel more relaxed and ready to learn each day.

Bulletin Board borders will help showcase student work. Positive saying signs will help motivate and encourage students to try their best. Having a calendar and weather information will help students keep track of the world around them.
