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

I would like to have all the supplies that my students need to start the school year. My students need speakers for our classroom laptop, writing paper, sentence strips, markers and other basic supplies to make sure their lessons are dynamic every day. My first graders love to work in teams and in workstations, I would like to have colorful pens, writing paper, sentence strips and erasers to encourage them to do their writing activities. The desk dividers will help them focus on their work.

I am sure that my first graders will love to begin the school year with a neat classroom with supplies ready for them.
