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

We are off to a great start this 2022-2023 school year. The products I have selected will continue to lead students in the direction of an amazing school year. The magnets are an excellent way to help me hold, post, decorate, label, and secure assignments and lessons.

The math and reading learning games give students opportunities to explore number concepts and reading skills in a fun and engaging way.

Dry erase markers are just more fun than pencil and paper! They increase the student's engagement. The string lights are excellent because they impact students' moods for the better. The magnetic hooks and magnetic board strips will be great for hanging materials the student would otherwise leave on the floor. The timer is a great, subtle way to reinforce classroom management. The megaphone is essential at dismissal during car ride duty. It helps so I can save my voice. The label maker allows me to preview labels before printing for file folders. The Bluetooth keyboard is great for portability and convenience.

These items will be extremely beneficial for students to start this new year with great new supplies. I have seen firsthand the positive effect that having new supplies, provided by their teacher, makes kids' motivation, attitude and self-esteem grow!
