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 students will be back in the classroom this Fall. Having a welcoming and organized classroom from the start of the new school year will support their transition back into the classroom.

The items in this project will help to create a welcoming and positive classroom environment.

As students return to school, I want to ensure that they are welcomed with the most colorfully bright and cheerful classroom environment possible. I know that these materials will help me transform our classroom into a space that is both functional and beautiful. The positive affirmations posters, bulletin board supplies, borders, notebooks, folders and erasers will transform my classroom into a kid-friendly space ready to foster student thinking and learning.
