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

We have been working hard over the past six months and we are starting to run out of some of our basics so we need a classroom refresh! We need to restock our classroom snacks and incentives, as well, we have been reading and writing so much that we have run out of pencils and markers! Therefore, we need some new basic materials to make our classroom feel new again and to incentivize the students to continue working hard until the end of the year! Sixth grade is coming quick!
