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 love to be able to bind books for the students at my school!

They love to write and make stories and a binding machine would help to enhance their learning.

This would help encourage them to become authors of their own stories. There are endless options that could be used with the binding machine! This would help not only my classroom or others. The spiral is so much better than the plastic combs. They would last so much longer! This project would be a game changer for my classroom.
