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 wonderful students are diverse learners and would benefit from having a tri-pod easel in their class so that the teacher (me) can display student work, use visuals while teaching, and encourage collaboration in our 6th grade classroom!

My students enjoy working in groups and making posters and visuals using the large post its!

The tri-pod easel will give my students the chance to build team work, be creative, and learn in a fun way! Some of my students also learn best with visuals and graphics so the easel can help me display work.

The hole puncher will allow me to help my students learn organizational skills as they begin their new chapter in middle school. Students will need to keep their binders organized for their classes.
