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

I have taught the students in my dual enrollment courses that in order to be successful in college one needs to consistently plan, organize, schedule, and create to-do lists. I seek to provide planners for my dual enrollment students to help them manage their time more efficiently.

My students often use line paper (which can be easily misplaced) to create their to-do lists and plan their schedules.

I believe that providing planners to my students will motivate them to organize their life more efficiently, and as a result succeed in their college courses.

I also want to provide visual aids for my economics class in order to make knowledge more accessible and incentives such as stress balls to instill motivation.
