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 goal for this project is for my students to be fully independent and in charge of their own learning. With the organizational items they will have the ability to access the materials needed for our daily tasks.

The bins will be used for interactive notebooks and other handouts provided.

The dividers will be for tests throughout the year. The timer will be used during small group instruction and to provide guidance for students to know how much time they have to complete a task.

My students will enter into 6th grade in the Dual Language Program-Spanish classroom. They are excited to start a new year of learning and eager to finish their last year in Elementary.
