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

The beginning of the school year is always an extra exciting time for both students and teachers. Starting the school year off with new supplies brings back warm memories to all of us at any grade level. My students will be well prepared with crayon boxes, binders, and composition books for developing their creative writing skills.

Our classroom learning environment will be prepared for the success of each kindergarten student!

Their teacher will be able to use these supplies to motivate, support, and organize all of their classroom supplies and materials.
