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

My kindergarten classroom hums with creative project activities and we are going through basic supplies quicker than they can last. With our upcoming reading and math units, we are struggling to keep up with basic daily supplies. Post-its will help us display answers and responses to assist with writing, reading, and math. They will also guide my students in group activities and collaborative discussions.

I'm requesting a variety of basic supplies including post-its dry, pens, and copy paper, to get us through the school year with great success.

These supplies will be used immediately! The hard work that my kindergarteners will be accomplishing this year can be exhibited on the charts. Help my students continue to love creating and admiring their displayed work. Again, thank you for all your help through your donation.
