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

As our classroom progresses into the winter season of learning, we are looking to update our winter books. My students frequent our rotating book display and love to read seasonal books during independent reading time. These books are also read aloud to them during snack time to connect and discuss seasonal themes. Updating our seasonal books for winter with these 5 current titles will keep our classroom reading relevant and fun!

The mobile easel is another important update!

Our current easel is very bulky and hard to move around, so I am looking to update our easel to a more mobile version. This will allow anchor charts to be on display as we co-create them during lessons. Displaying new learning is vital in our environment!
