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

As we come upon the winter season, that means the school year is nearing its midpoint! As I have transitioned into a second grade classroom this past month, I have been taking note of things that could help make the second half of our year run smoother. Mainly, we need the basic supplies that help us engage in day to day learning, and to keep ourselves tidy and healthy as we come through the winter season.

This project includes basic supplies such as pencils, glue and refills, and refill ink for our classroom printer where many of our resources and materials are created; as well as paper towels and tissues for helping us keep clean and tidy during this winter season.

We are also looking to get some blank flashcards as we are constantly making our own for vocabulary words and math facts.

Our group of second graders are English language learners and they are making some very impressive gains, as well as being bright and joyful members of our classroom community. We all appreciate your support and wish you a warm and cozy winter season!
