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 requested will help us get organize in the classroom. We will use the brown line paper for our writing rotation everyday. The hall passes, pencil holders and museum gel allows things to run smoothly during these rotations. One of my goals is provide students the tools they need to take advantage of every instructional minute in the day.

Organization and independence are two major areas I focus in my classroom to help students be successful.

These materials help students keep organized and let student know where things go in the classroom. Our class has different stations and electronic devices that required cables to run through the class, the velcro tape will make it a safe environment for all. Thank you for helping me with this project.
