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

A day will come when the story inside you will want to breathe on its own. That’s when you’ll start writing. -Sarah Noffke

These resources will help me to develop the writers in my classroom while making accessible the essential tools needed to get my students sharing the stories that live within them.

Grips for pencils, sand timers, and a wonderful collection of mentor texts will be a great addition to our classroom community. The pocket folders will keep me organized and the teacher guides will help me to teach and confer with my small groups.

Your contribution will also secure writing essentials needed to supplement the writing curriculum at my school. The Teachers Pay Teachers gift code will enable me to download writing activities that I will use to differentiate during small group instruction and centers.

All of these materials combined will support my writers no matter where they are in their adventures in writing.
