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 items in this list may not seem like they relate to one another, and you make ask yourself how does this help with learning? The truth is I have noticed that our lessons need a little sprucing up, a little added joy. With some paint, book marks and magnet tiles we can use in math, social studies and sel I will have opportunities to incorporate FUN but meaningful activities without leaving behind the little bits of joy that simple tools like this can bring. Some of the the items are for me personally as I do not have a set room and move around with my class, so having some organizing materials will help me stay that way, organized.
