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 fifth grade students are amazing. There is something special about teaching fifth graders. They are the big kids of elementary school and soon will be middle schoolers. They have their amazing personalities and add such wonderful insight to our classroom's discussions. I will be using the classroom supplies in the classroom. Students will have access to use them when they need it. The classroom rug will be used for my classroom library. I want to create a cozy and comfortable classroom library, where students can read and feel right at home.
