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

We need school supplies! Everyday all day my students use pencils and paper to write, crayons to color, and markers for their center work. My students also make mistakes and need erasers to fix their work using both pencils and dry erase markers. On the days we express ourselves through art and color we use markers, Play-doh, glue sticks and of course, lot and lots of paper! We also need to keep our tools sharp using our sharpeners.

All of these everyday essentials I am requesting will be used every day, by every student in my classroom in order to learn!

This project will directly impact historically underfunded classrooms.
