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

This upcoming school year, I will be teaching second-grade dual language. The dual language classroom setting requires double the materials since the students are learning in two languages, English and Spanish. The more materials we have, the more bins we need!

In order for us to have an organized start to this upcoming school year, we need book bins!

These colorful book bins will help us organize our classroom libraries in the dual language colors of blue (English) and red (Spanish). While simultaneously bringing other beautiful colors to our math, social studies, and science areas.

Thank you in advance for your kind donation! Donors like you help me keep my students and classroom organized!
