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 want to make sure that my fabulous first graders have a successful start toward a harmonious learning experience this school year.

Organization, routines, showcasing students’ work, and a clean environment create a harmonious classroom for academic achievement and mental wellness.

I will use the corkboard strips to display my students’ completed assignments. The vacuum cleaner will help in cleaning up messes quickly and get us back on task. I will use the label tapes to create labels that I will place on classroom items to enhance my ESOL students’ English learning. The vinyl dots will establish routines, maintain order and harmony as my young students line up.

I thank you in advance for your generous donation to my classroom project.
