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

Getting the basic needs for a classroom is vital for a successful school year. Ensuring that we have sanitizing wipes, plastic baggies, tissues, and magnets is essential for success for various projects and every day life in the classroom! The felt tip markers will be used when color coding in math or phonics.

As teachers, we dip into our pockets way too much because we do not want to burden families.

The materials from this project will ensure that my classroom has what we need for a great year ahead!

I believe that my students should have access to food whenever needed, you can't learn if you are hungry. Therefore, we need plastic baggies to take snacks to special classes or to save snacks from home too. Once we eat it is important to wipe the tables down for safety and sanitation.
