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

Basic Classroom Supplies to help keep my students clean and healthy. Since covid it has been even more important to keep the students and classrooms as clean as possible, this means providing extra supplies for the teachers and the classrooms, like soap, tissues, extra trash bags, and a fan for when the room gets too humid in the summertime. All this will create a better learning environment for the students and teachers and let them keep healthy and focus on learning and being creative at school and in the classroom.

Mr. Matheson IS 77 Joseph F Quinn School Grades 6-8
