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

Our summer vacations are coming to an end and our school will soon be starting classes again in early August! Please help me give my 4th and 5th grade students a classroom that is stocked with the necessary school materials needed for a great back-to-school experience.

The class timer, for example, will help our class stay focused and on-schedule when completing class assignments and projects.

This will help me set high standards for all students from day one. When working in class, students will be able to learn about time management from a young age. In addition, the construction paper, sharpies, and markers will come in handy when completing back-to-school projects in our classroom.
