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

I am requesting printer color ink, organizers, and dry-erase markers to help facilitate the learning of my little learners.

A colorful print-rich environment can turn learning new concepts and a new language for my English language learners into a positive experience.

My students love to have their own-colored copies of word cards, pictures, and sentences for matching and writing sentences. I am also asking for organizers to help students keep their math manipulatives in a designated area for easy access. i am also requesting clay, pencil sets, Better Hand Cream, notepads and mini backpacks which I plan to use as incentives and rewards for my students.

Thank you in advance for your generous donation of colorful ink and organizers, so that my English language learners will have a wonderful experience learning English!
