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

The materials and supplies I am requesting for my students are extremely important tools to help support in their learning. Basic supplies like pencils, individual dry erase boards, folders and a pencil sharpener will help facilitate independency during lessons and small group time.

The folders will be used for IEP goals and guided reading assignments.

The dry erase boards will be used to assist the students with math problems and for writing their drafts.

The page protectors and laminating paper will protect completed work.

Please consider funding this much needed project!
