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 want my students to develop good healthy habits. I also am requesting mini toothpastes, some soap for the class bathroom, wobble seats for flexible seating, tissues, and some granola bars as a treat.

Starting the day off right by brushing their teeth with a cool electric toothbrush may do just that!

I teach math but I also teach about healthy habits, eating right and taking care of your bodies. I think parents will love when their kids come home with a cool toothbrush to help instill these habits at home. Thank you for helping me achieve this goal!
